I just ordered a set from Apple and I can’t get these to stay in my ear.
I got two pairs from logitech, but the max volume on those was far too quiet.
I got a dongle from Google to use some old AKG earbuds I had, and the inline controls rarely work.
Hoping to find something that has good quality audio, inline controls, decent volume, and eartips that stay in (and/or can be swapped). Preferably somewhere at or below the $20USD mark.
Thank you for any recommendations.
I have two phones. One has a headphone jack and isn’t compatible with my carrier. The inline controls work fine on that phone. If I plug in the USBC dongle I got from google, the controls will pause, but won’t play again if the screen goes to sleep. Same for the USB-C Dongles I’ve gotten from Logitech.
My primary phone has no headphone jack. the configs I’ve tried above all yield the same results.
2 phones, multiple earbud sets, and 3 different USB-C dongles. Same behavior across stock android, LineageOS, and GrapheneOS.
When I tried the earbuds from Apple, the controls work great. but they keep slipping out of my ear.
That’s why I’m looking for earbuds that terminate into a USB-C jack.
Do you use a USB-C to 3.55mm adapter? If so, what phone and set of earbuds have you had success with?
