USB C to 3.5mm Headphone Adapter, Male to Female 32bit DAC AMP Audio Cable for Phones iPad Pro MacBook Switch PS5 Black

This is my third USB-C to 3.5mm adapter and by far the best. I like to listen to audiobooks and music and my phone doesn't have a 3.5 mm audio jack. I've bought a pair of cheaper adapters in years prior, and while it does allow me to hear my phone, the audio experience has been --frustrating. Common issues between them include loud, constant noise, dropped audio signals like cd players skipping or Bluetooth connection failing, and of course poor mic pickup. I'm no audiophile but I do have a quality wired headset and when listening to my phone on a 5hr flight, the noise from the adapter is louder than the airplane engine which is where I draw the line. I was skeptical buying an adapter over $10 but I'm happy with this one. It comes in a very nice package and the adapter performs well. The sound is very crisp with little to no discernable noise. I haven't checked the mic quality yet, but for my purposes, primarily listening to music and audiobooks, this adapter is perfect. If you are looking for a quality adapter and are willing to spend a little more, I would recommend this one, 10/10.

I usually do not write reviews unless I have a problem with a product. But these guys deserve the credit. Let me start by saying that I am a Audiophile, most of my earphones, amps and dacs run upwards of $1k a piece. So you can trust that I know what I am talking about, when I say this little chinese DAC is a winner for $20! I have plenty of HiRes DAC's that are better than this, sure, but none of them support the microphone on caller headset cables. I needed something inconspicous and portable that would allow me to use my microphone to make a call. This worked flawlessly on my Galaxy Note 10 plus and I was really surprised with the audio quality. For $20, I honestly do not believe you will find a better sounding USB-C DAC. I would say the DAC/Amp is even better than Samsung Galaxy's internal chips. Unfortunately Samsung is ditching the 3.5mm jack from now on, which is a huge mistake IMO, as it puts too much excessive wear on the USB jack for starters. Fortunately for us we atleast have a suitable substitute with this little winner. Not sure it will hold up, but even if it lasts for only a year, it is still a solid option for people who have 3.5mm headsets. I will be honest with this last statement. Wired headphones will always be superior sounding, BT earbuds are a scam, they cost allot more and make allot of sacrifices to run off tiny batteries. All of the best legit Hi-Res earphones are wired, 3.5mm or 2.5mm balanced. This will never change, for the same reason Audiophiles are still scouring the earth for old transistor tubes made in the 1950's. Old crumbly moldy boxed tubes that costed 5cents back in the day are being litterally faught over for hundreds of dollars a tube. The marketing hype fooled the masses into adopting the inferior solid state transistor chips, only the Audiophiles were the wiser. Shaking our heads in shame, as we see a similar mistake being marketed to the masses again in the form of "wireless". When it comes to Audio the old systems and analog technologies are still the best and will remain top dog for the foreseeable future. Just as the old Stradivarius Violin is still undisputedly superior to every synthetic composite or carbon fiber violin produced today. The wired premium earphone market is just now beginning to reach its potential, with AMAZING multi dynamic driver and balanced armature IEM's. There are hybrid disigns with internal crossovers that are being born now, that would blow your friggen mind! New exciting modular cables with well designed braids and alloys that are truly allowing the audiophile to have perfection in sound down to the smallest detail. Streaming services like Tidal that allow you to hear a STUDIO MASTER track of unlimited artists, simply by using a cellphone and typing in the band. There is a whole beautiful new world of sound emerging yet to really become a member, you need one simple thing, a friggin audio jack! You will find none of this in the tinny, single low quality driver, limited bandwidth blue tooth land of wireless earbuds. Wireless is just marketing trash, sure its convienient, but is it really?? How many times have you lost your BT, or forgot to charge it? I honestly dont really see the appeal of an inferior wireless technology, that is as hard on the wallet as it is on the body. Because as a Aircraft Electrician, I can tell you that keeping your brain sandwitched between two wireless transmitters is a VERY BAD idea, but that is a whole nother can of worms entirely. Until Samsung realizes its mistake and gives us back our beloved, future proof audio jack, I will be keeping this little slugger in my pocket. Everyone else can have their crappy wireless buds and brain tumors. Just buy one!

I'm using this DAC with USB audio player pro on my note 10 plus. I only have three issues: I cannot control the hardware volume (which could be because of the software), there doesn't seem to be any way to do a firmware update or for that matter get any tech support and the USBC plug is very tight - too tight in my opinion. So those are the the flaws. The device works flawlessly (other than the things I mentioned) and I find the sound quality to be excellent using a variety of earbuds and mid high grade over ear headphones. I have also fed the output into my stereo and have noticed no flaws in the sound (noise hiss distortion excetera.) Great value for the money, hope they fix that plug. You can always use a little dongle or something if you're worried about it. A few other notes: works with all the media software I have including Google play and VLC. Software volume control works fine. I can recommend this product.

For the cost, this is an excellent adapter. The sound quality is impressive and for one thing works well on my IPad Air 4. My primary headphones are my 1More in ear quad driver and Philips Fidelio X2, and the amplification is excellent. What really shocked me, was that this adapter could power my X2s to a actually somewhat loud volume. Usually phones/mobile devices can’t power these, or do so little, it can’t get any amount of a loud volume whatsoever. It’s not ear bleeding loud but in the case of my iPad will provide enough volume for even these high of an impedance headphone set. In the case of my 1More buds, it powers them damn well. Well worth the money if you are looking for an adapter that actually works and does what it says (in my opinion). That $4 Walmart Onn adapter ain’t got nothing on this. Just spend the extra money and you’ll not regret it.

I needed another Aux to USB-C adapter for my Note 10+ for office, so decided to give this a shot. I primarily listen to music via the Tidal streaming app and at home use Monoprice Monolith m1060 headphones. My first test an A/B comparison using some tracks from the latest Billie Eilish album. Volume wise, nothing seemed to change when switching between my old regular adapter and the Amp / DAC; There was a difference in details between the tracks, with the Amp /DAC sounding a little bit clearer and more dynamic. I then tried random music that I know well (stuff like Eagles, J Balvin, Toby Mac, Creed, etc.) and got the same result, the Amp / DAC sounded a little bit better. The difference is like if you use a USB C direct connection vs Aux, the USB C always sounds a little cleaner. I was going to deduct a star for not amplifying the signal as advertised, but then I tried it in my car and the Amp / DAC is a good 4 or 5 bars louder (volume goes up to 40) than the regular adapter. Obviously for what it is, I didn't expect a huge boost... but for the small price difference between this and a regular adapter I feel it's well worth it. It does what it advertised, small volume and sound quality increase.

One sentence should tell you all you need to know about this DAC...It is actually capable of driving Sennheiser HD650s to a reasonably high output level. If that doesn't convince you that these are worth the measly price tag, nothing will. I'm serious about that. I own the HD650s and normally use them with my gaming PC and a Schiit stack (Magni + Modi combo). Obviously this little DAC plugged into a cell phone can't reproduce the volume or quality of that signal chain, but you will be shocked (as I was) that they can actually drive a 300 ohm can to a reasonable volume (from a cell phone). I say reasonable because it is by no means loud, but its loud enough and sounds fine if you feel like taking your cans on the road. Personally I don't, I have a set of Sennheiser ear-buds that I use with my cell phone at work and they sound just fine with this DAC. Better than they did with the old USB-C DAC that I had. I've only owned this for a couple weeks now so I can't speak to longevity (and that tends to be an issue with these) so this review may change. But for the money, I wouldn't be upset if they only lasted a year and needed to be replaced.

The bass has been overemphasized, and the mid and to upper frequency are subdued. But has a peak at the very high frequency. This makes this not pleasant to listen to. The sound curve makes it sound like a veil-like underwater effect (voice), sud-dues whisper sounds making them unrecognizable, but at the same time, sharp pings feel piercing. Bass-heavy songs sound amazing with this as sub 50hz is emphasized so much. but overall sound curve makes this an unpleasant hearing experience. Even compared to the cheap apple usb to 3.5, which is more balanced and pleasent to listen to, though does not have that extra omph at sub 30hz bass (sound which you feel but not hear).

I purchased this product along with a headphone tube amplifier so that I could extract better quality audio from my Galaxy S10 phone and my PlayStation 5. With the phone while in line with an amplifier it was able to provide more colorful highs and vocals. The bass and mid-level we're not noticeably improved but you could pick out sounds that were fading for much longer as they were not clipped they faded out to infinity. So there was definitely an improvement of sound. The biggest letdown was there was no increase in amplification. Even with using a lower ohm, 50 mm driver headset I expected to have some increase in amplification or volume and there was none. While using it in line between the phone and my headphones alone (without a tube amp) I had no noticeable increase in volume capability whatsoever. The second letdown which may not be the fault of this product is that it does not work with the PlayStation 5. Upon searching the interwebs I found a few people saying that about four months ago with a system update that the PlayStation 5 was no longer output USB audio from the USB C port. Watching the send causes no change on the system whatsoever. It does not see it and nothing is out putting through it. If you have some high-quality audio files that you would like to play from a device that will output USB C audio, then I recommend this for you. If you need more volume coming out of your headphones... I recommend you get a headphone amp to go along with it.
