since le 2 does not have 3.5 mm earphone jack, we have to use 3.5 mm to c type connector. those low-quality connectors last for only a few days. so which earphones are best for le 2. there is some cdla earphone available on Flipkart and amazon but here built quality is very cheap as per the customers. can anyone recommend me a good and average budget earphones for this device
I would recommend getting a good wireless/bluetooth earphones, CDLA earphones sound amazing but built very cheaply.

Hi guys I was not too happy with the built in dac on the note 8 and a friend recommended buying a usb c to headphone adapter as apparently have there own dac built in so I bought the htc one http://www.htc.com/uk/accessories/usb-c-digital-to-3-5mm/
And I don't know if I'm hearing things but it does sound louder with the adapter or am I just hearing it different?
My question is if it's true about these adapters having there own dac is there a better one the the htc obviously in a reasonable price range ive seen the one with the razor phone is ment to be good
And if this is the case I don't see the big fuss about looking the headphone jack if we can get great sound from the adapters lol
Thanks

Are you sure your friend didn't say that usb would use the headunit dac instead? I know that works that way, usb c to usb into my headunit for direct file play using only the headunit dac not headunit dac+ phone dac. No, I can't see any adapters your talking about having built into dac.
I can also tell you that I can't use high res in poweramp through usb or UHQ upscaler in settings with usb audio. I prob won't use it much due to those reasons, or Bluetooth for poor audio quality and no uhq upscaler either. Leaving aux for being the best for audio on this phone.

The moment you use the usb-c port to play your music, it bypasses the internal DAC. This is why ALL usb-c earbuds etc have their own DAC. I honestly doubt an adapter-DAC combo less than 10 pounds will outperform the DAC in the Note 8.
There is a major distinction between
1. How the DAC processes and shapes your music.
2. How 'powerful' it is and if it can handle high impedance headphones.
Seems to me that no. 2 is likely but definitely not no.1 with the adapter you linked.
It is well known that LOUDNESS(not volume) often comes across as BETTER quality sound.
Thanks guys I'm no audiophile I just wanted better and louder sound which the usb c headphone adapter seems (placebo maybe) do I've looked around on Amazon with a few of them claiming that they have decent dac built it
Do these dac in the adapters bypass the phone dac or something ?
Is that possible to use the type c to 3.5mm converter for 7 plus?
why?! you have 3,5 mm jack
I have a HTC Usb to 3.5mm adaptor that I used on my HTC U ultra and it works great with the Nokia 7 plus as well.
I think the audio is louder using the adaptor and better quality.

because the sound quality from the 3.5mm is so poor
I have huawei p20 headphones also with usb-c and these are better than anything else.

Want to know does it worths to buy the adaptor just for sound quality improvement?
That's a difficult question as I always find audio a very personal thing.
I have just tried my Akg K451 headphones with both the audio jack on the phone and the HTC adaptor.
The HTC 3.5 mm adaptor is significantly louder than the audio jack at full volume. I notice some distortion in the audio jack that is absent on the HTC adaptor. I think the audio from the adaptor is fuller and far more pleasing to my ear.
I have no idea how these things work, for instance does the HTC adaptor have its own DAC or is it simply a pass through device? The difference in audio level would suggest to me the presence of its own DAC so maybe that would account for the difference in audio .
Maybe it's worth buying the adaptor just to drive certain headphones better. I have a pair of status audio headphones at home that I normally use with a headphone amp to drive them I will try them on the 7 plus later to see how they sound with the audio jack and the adaptor.
Sorry I can't be more definitive.
By the way the HTC adaptor is around £10 in the UK direct from HTC.
Is the sound quality and volume really that bad or is it just some specific/batch units?
I listen to a lot of audiobooks on the go and it would be a shame if this was a dealbreaker.
No I don't find the audio particularly bad and most of the time it is loud enough.
Most of the time I use the 3.5 jack and don't have a problem but when I'm sitting listening to music and doing nothing else I prefer the audio from my HTC adapter.
The volume will depend on the impeadence of the headphones used, my AKG headphones are always much louder than my status audio ones when used in the same device.

I think it can，I used a Xiaomi's type-c headset that can be used
Quite strangely, My Mi A2's USB-C to 3.5 adapter DOES NOT WORK with my Nokia 7+
I want to buy new earphones within 5000rs range.Kindly suggest me some good earphones.will the Google type c earphones work on OnePlus 5t.thanks
I am using AWEI X650BL Bluetooth dual driver earphones for about 6 months now.
I am very satisfied with the quality and battery life.
I'm using the RHA MA650, amazing bluetooth earphones, sound is amazing and balanced not too bass heavy. Has NFC for easy pairing and has aptX for better delivery and has over 12hrs of battery life. The best part for me is they charge using USB-C. Also they are sweatproof hence perfect for working out too. If interested, buy them from headphonezone (India only).
You guys tried oneplus bullets wireless? And playing PUBG with it?
i got this too... im happy!
U should try one plus bullet headphones. These are just amazing and works great while playing pubg.
Just want to share with you guys these amazing earphones I got on AliExpress for just 24bucks. I think they are amazing. Never tried the OnePlus ones but I think these are amazing and cheap.

Sound is all around amazing. Of course can't compare the bass with some wired headphones I have had before but I think that's because we don't have viper sound mod working for the OnePlus 7t. You won't regret these.
The only downside that I have noticed about these is during phone calls the mic isn't to great at picking up your voice in a noisy area like a market place I stay in Africa by the way. But if you are anywhere just about quiet enough it has not problem. I have never run out of battery maybe because I have never worn them for 3 hours straight listening to music.
I just bought a USB type C-to-3.5mm adaptor (Xiaomi brand) and plugged into S21u using my existing earphones such as Sony, Realme and Huawei. None of them is working. It says "USB is not supported". I do not want to use Type C earphones as all my other mobiles and laptops use 3.5mm jack. Any solution?
The adapter must have an inboard DAC.
Newer Samsung phones output in digital only, no analog.
Use the Samsung C port/3.5 mm adapter.
Better yet get a pair of Buds+, at the very least you'll want them for calls.
Finally, got myself a basic type C earphone made by Samsung (costs 27 USD) rather than an adapter with built-in DAC. The sound is rich in mid and high but lacks bass compared to my existing 3.5mm earphones.
I had the same earphones, single driver, no bass at all, totally worthless. Replaced them with these which are very good. Samsung no longer offers them but can be found in South Korea on eBay. Contrary to the video the price is down to around $70 USD. Not as good as the 1MORE Quad Driver which requires an adapter.
