Bypassing Prius Bluetooth Audio Lag via the Aux Port - Apple vs Belkin Adapters

My 2014 Toyota Prius Three has a noticeable bluetooth audio lag. I've tried dropping the pairing on both my iPhone 13 Pro and the Prius. This was followed by doing a quasi-reboot of the audio for the car, but nothing has worked. Personally, I believe the lag is a result of Toyota dropping support for the Entunes app that was the key to integrating the iPhone to their suite of CarPlay-like apps.
Either way, I have bypassed the bluetooth audio lag using the built-in AUX port of the Prius. The thing is that iPhones no longer have built-in audio ports. This means I have to use a lightning port to 3.5mm audio adapter. In this video I feature Apple's own adapter vs the one made by Belkin. Both work, but you'll clearly see which one is the batter choice.
