literally "shocked" by iphone headphones

[mike12806]

So TWICE in the past two weeks, I've gotten a little jolt from my iphone headphones. I'm guessing it may have something to do with the fact it got a little wet last week 😕 Nothing too painful just a small jolt....just reminds me that electronics and water don't mix! This happen to anyone else? I'm thinking it might be static also?

Whoa, painful! I'd get some new ones and save yourself the jolt.

Let Apple know.

Whenever I put my iPod (5G) in the pocket of a pair of my mesh athletic shorts, I get zapped every so often when the frequency of the notes hits a certain level. Static is a good bet - just be careful where you put the iPhone, and you should be fine.
