USB-C to 3.5mm audio adapter 2018

This USB-C to 3.5mm adapter connects wired headphones, headsets or speakers to devices that lack a built-in jack. An integrated audio chip handles playback, call audio and inline wire controls through a single compact cable. The aluminium-alloy shell and TPE jacket are built for daily use with phones, tablets and laptops. ||

Best for wired-audio users

Buyers who want to keep using existing 3.5mm earphones or headsets with a modern USB-C port will find this adapter convenient. It also supports hands-free calling and music control via the cable remote. Users whose device already provides a 3.5mm socket, or who require a separate charging port while listening, should consider a different solution. ||

3.5mm jack and USB-C plug

The decisive specification is the combination of a USB-C connector on one end and a 3.5mm TRRS socket on the other. That pairing determines whether the adapter fits your device and your headphones. No other interface or protocol is involved.

Questions about this item

What does the 3.5 mm jack actually let me do on a USB-C device?

It restores a standard headphone socket so you can plug in any 3.5 mm headset, speaker cable or car aux lead for audio playback and calls.

Does the USB-C plug carry digital audio or does it need an analogue pass-through mode?

The adapter contains its own audio chip, so it converts digital USB-C signals to analogue for the 3.5 mm port; the host only needs a standard USB-C audio output.

Will the aluminium-and-TPE shell fit beside other ports on a slim tablet or phone?

The compact 2-in-1 design is built to sit flush against the device, leaving adjacent ports accessible on slim models such as the iPad Pro 2018.
