  • I was skeptical at first…
Let me tell you, I was skeptical at first about the Apple USB-C to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter. It's a small dongle, and I wasn't sure if it would deliver good sound quality. But for the price, I figured it was worth a shot. Boy, am I glad I did! This little adapter has become my everyday hero. It plugs right into the USB-C port on my phone, and then I can use any of my favorite wired headphones that have the normal 3.5mm jack. The sound quality is honestly fantastic - crisp, clear, and just as good as when I plugged them directly into my old phone. Plus, this adapter is built really well. The cable feels sturdy, and the little metal connector seems like it can take a beating. It's also super compact, so I can just toss it in my bag or pocket without any worries. Sure, it might not be the most glamorous accessory, but for anyone with a new phone that ditched the headphone jack, this adapter is a lifesaver. It's affordable, delivers great sound, and is built to last. ... show more

  • The mic works as do all the headphone controls!
Apple does it again! My students complained that I sounded muffled with my off brand earbuds when conducting Zoom class from my iPad Pro OS 14.4, so rather than purchase expensive Air Pods that I’d fear I would lose, I purchased a multi-function adapter in order to use my 3.5mm Apple headphones with mic. That adapter was terrible: 1. Volume controls would not work. 2. Magic Keyboard keyboard would not work 3. Recorded mic volume was TOO low, almost inaudible. Returned that adapter and purchased the much less expensive Apple USB C to 3.5mm adapter and though it does not allow for charging while connected to headphones, the adapter works with all the headphone functions and the recorded memos with the built-in headphone mic are of superior quality. I can now use my iPad Pro to conduct my Zoom classes knowing my students will be able to hear me loud and clear! Another bonus, unlike the first adapter I purchased, this adapter connects to my iPad Pro while in its protective case! ... show more

  • Apple has made a great, inexpensive audiophile-ish Dongle-DAC... For Android! Apple has made a great, inexpensive audiophile-ish Dongle-DAC... For Android!
Okay, let's get some things out of the way first: If you don't use a special music player app on Android like USB Audio Player Pro, HiBy Music, or Neutron Player, get ready for low volume. If you prefer a less balanced, bass-heavy sound with less definition, get a regular Samsung USB-C Headset Jack Adapter. With that being said, it's time for the review! Equipment used for testing: -Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G (USB-C 3.2, USB On-The-Go) -Moondrop Aria -Status Audio CB-1 -Tripowin TC-01 -Soundcore Life Q30 (Wired mode, balanced EQ) I decided to try this adapter because I saw many people praising it, even though it's not originally designed for Android. So, lo and behold: My first impression when I got the box was that the unit was nicely packaged. I confirmed when I unboxed the unit. Having the unit in my hands was quite bizarre, since the USB-C male port and the 3.5mm female jack feel quite nice, with glossy plastic. On the other hand, the cable itself feels flimsy and like it'll break if I'm a little rough with the unit. Connecting it to my Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G and without using any app, I get a good amount of volume, not enough for some, but okay enough to listen to Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, or any other music streaming service you prefer in a nice, quiet environment. Again, go for the Samsung USB-C Headset Jack Adapter if you want to make your ears bleed. If you really want to make this adapter shine, use USB Audio Player Pro, HiBy Music, Neutron Music, or another Android music player app that bypasses Android's sound source. It can get plenty loud with minimal distortion if you have some good earphones, earbuds, in-ear monitors, or headphones. You can also use 16/24bit and 44.1/48kHz (with USB Audio Player Pro you can get bit-perfect sound output as long as you have files with those bit rates and resolutions. Anything else will be resampled). The sound is quite clean and neutral/flat. Don't expect a huge bass, but a tight, detailed one. The mids are upfront and you'll be in a little heaven if you listen to some vocal-driven music. The high frequencies aren't harsh or piercing. They do feel good enough without being super detailed. I'd say that the sound from this unit is definitely enjoyable; a little bit analytical but not bright, and you can definitely appreciate any music genre you throw at it. The instrument separation is very good, not amazing but very good. Imaging is quite okay, above your phone for sure. The soundstage feels not so wide, but it still feels a little open. There's no perceptible hiss, which is something great, compared to the Samsung USB-C Headset Jack Adapter. The latter one has a quite noticeable background noise. And now, the reason I give it five stars: $8.28. That's how much I paid for such a nice Dongle-DAC. There are other options out there, like the Xumee USB-C to 3.5 mm Adapter and the CX31993, but they're around $13.00 and $16.00 respectively. For $9.00 approx., this is an easy recommendation for any music lover and starter audiophile who uses Android (especially if you listen to well-produced music). ... show more

  • It works! Using for 2020 MacBook Air
I use wired headphones (Don't judge me, I'm old.) and after giving it a fair chance I was still completely frustrated having to plug them in on the right. Aha! They must have a dongle for that! At first I had the USB to Lightening connector in my cart, but praise the goddesses, I realized that Lightening and USB-C weren't the same, I was getting Lightening mixed up with Thunderbolt. Made the correction, purchased this item, received it quickly, let it sit in decontamination for a couple of days, then excitedly connected it and . . . nothing. Huh? Another Aha! moment sent me back to the product page where I found the solution. Thanks to Jessica C. in "Questions & Answers," I moseyed on over to System Preferences-Sound-Output-and selected "USB-C to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter" for almost instant gratification. (Of course it has to be plugged in to be able to select it.) I am so thrilled to be back on the right side - which is left - that I'm giving the full 5 Stars even though the product wasn't as user-friendly as it should have been. (Or were there instructions I didn't bother to read?) The sound sounds good to me, but remember, my ears are old. Apple, you're dragging me into the future kicking and screaming - haven't you ever heard if it ain't broke don't fix it! Dongles jar with the simple beauty and functionality of Apple design, but if we have to use them the least you could do is include some. ... show more

  • Audiophile worthy, might not work on Android
I need to spend more time with this and i might update this review but here's what I'll say. On PC: I use a Schiit Magni 2 amp and Beyerdynanic DT-770 pro 250 ohm headphones with my computer, its a modest audiophile setup. When I use this 9 dollar dac, it significantly and noticably reduces audio distortion at high volume levels. Before using it, the distortion at high levels could be sufficiently difficult to listen to. With this dac it's not perfect, but its much better, and so its a no brainer to me to not use it. If using it on a windows PC, you might need to go to audio devices and boost the level of the device manually in order for it to be the same volume as your other audio devices. On Android: to use this dac on Android you need to download an app called UAPP or USB Audio Player Pro. This player will detect the dac, control and boost the volume independently, and sound crisp and beautiful. If you don't use this app, it will sound quieter than the regular audio on your phone. Apparently there is a way to get this app to enable the dac and boost its volume across the entire Android system, meaning you could use other apps like spotify with it. I was not able to get this to work. The volume was boosted but it added excessive distortion at every volume level. I'm really disappointed by this as i originally got it with the intention of using it with my Android. but it might just be my system, it may totally work in yours. For 9 dollars, it is absolutely worth trying. ... show more

  • Sleek and compact adapter, but with a wire gauge that doesn't inspire confidence
I have a drawer full of these USB-C to headphone adapters already, but I purchased this one to use with my Apple Earpods as it will work correctly with the in-line remote. Compared to my many other such adapters, this one is the most sleek and compact but the wire is also VERY thin. The plugs on both ends are made of a hard, shiny plastic rather than the soft-touch plastic that's a bit more typical. Build quality overall seems fairly cheap. The DAC built into this device is fine to my ears and it supports 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz sampling rates with bit depths of 16 or 24-bits per sample. This is consistent with other similar adapters I own. The thing about USB-C headphone adapters is that in general most of them will work on any phone or computer - whether you should buy one designed for Apple products or for Android depends not on which phone/tablet/computer it's being used with but rather which standard of inline controls your headphones use. When I use headphones that are designed for apple products, the inline controls work fine whether connected to an Apple device, Android, Windows, or a game console. Likewise, when I use headphones that are marketed as being for Android, the audio works perfectly fine (both speakers and mic) but the inline volume controls do not. If your headphones have inline controls and are intended to be Android compatible, this adapter will get you audio but will not support your inline controls, so keep that in mind. Because of the inconsistency in compatibility with volume controls, this gets 3 stars in that particular category - it's either going to work flawlessly or not at all depending on the headphones, so a score right in the middle seemed appropriate there. Overall, this is a perfectly acceptable adapter. The build quality and the robustness of materials don't inspire confidence that it will last for years to come, but it does exactly what it is meant to, and if you have a set of headphones designed for Apple products, this is what you need to make their controls work, even on an Android. In fact, even if your Android has a headphone jack built-in, this MAY be worth picking up just to gain access to the volume controls that would otherwise be incompatibility. ... show more

  • Awesome cheap DAC
Built-in DAC is fantastic, I use it to power my studio headphones through both my PC and phone. I own like, 4 of these because they're so dang good at the price they're at. They're real small, don't require external power, and pack a real punch.
