    Hi,

    I have an iPhone 6 that came with a charger (USB -> lightning port I think) and a set of headphones with inline volume control. If I was to swap the phone for an iPhone 5 would these two accessories still work or would I need iPhone5-specific ones? Is there anything else I should bear in mind? Basically I intend to just move the SIM card from the iPhone 6 to an iPhone 5, I presume my iCloud account and everything will transfer across with the SIM card ?

    Thanks,

    Usjes.

    No with regards to the SIM card bit.
    There's actually nothing on your SIM card. All your apple related stuff; apps, photos etc can be synced to iTunes and then put on the new phone or done via iCloud if you've enough storage. Just set up the new phone with your current Apple ID and restore from iCloud or iTunes backup.
