USB-C Over-Ear Headphones for Modern Devices

The HandCandy ACANDYA-00278 connects via USB-C to recent iPhone, iPad, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel and OnePlus models that lack a 3.5 mm jack. A 16-ohm impedance and integrated DAC chip deliver wired digital audio without relying on wireless pairing or battery charging. The over-ear form factor targets commuters, office workers and athletes who want a secure fit during movement.

Open-Ear Build with In-Line Controls

Flexible ear-hooks wrap around the ear to keep the open-ear drivers stable while leaving the canal unobstructed for ambient awareness. The lightweight frame and loose fit remain comfortable during extended sessions. A TPE cable resists tangling and terminates in an inline remote that handles play, pause, volume, track skip and voice-assistant activation. The built-in microphone supports clear calls in gym or street environments.

Protective Case and Clip Included

A hard-shell case stores the headphones safely in a bag or pocket, reducing cable strain and driver damage when not in use. An earphone clip secures the cable to clothing, preventing bounce during runs or workouts. No software companion or equaliser app is bundled; all controls are hardware-based for immediate, platform-agnostic operation.

Questions about this item

What does the USB-C connector on the HandCandy ACANDYA-00278 headphones actually carry?

The USB-C plug delivers a digital audio signal to the built-in DAC chip and powers the in-line microphone and volume controls.

What physical clearance do the ear-hooks need to sit securely?

Flexible ear-hooks wrap behind each ear; they require enough space above the pinna for the loop to rest without pressing on glasses arms or hat brims.

How do you activate the voice assistant without touching the phone?

Press and hold the multi-function button on the in-line remote until the assistant prompt sounds, then release and speak your command.
