Sony IER-EX15C USB-C Wired In-Ear Headphones

The Sony IER-EX15C is a pair of wired in-ear headphones that connects through a USB-C plug. It weighs 0.05 kilograms and uses a dynamic driver with a 10 ohm input impedance. An in-line remote provides volume controls, a multi-function button, and a built-in microphone with 600 ohm impedance. The cable features a textured design to reduce tangling.

Commuters and office workers wanting a simple

This model suits listeners who prefer a direct USB-C link to phones, laptops, or consoles without battery charging or wireless drop-outs. The secure-fitting silicone tips in multiple sizes support extended wear. Buyers whose devices lack a USB-C port cannot use these headphones. Users seeking active noise cancellation should consider other options.

USB-C digital audio interface

The single specification that decides compatibility is the USB-C connector, which carries both digital audio and microphone signals. No analogue jack or separate power source is required. The 10 ohm input impedance allows efficient driving from portable sources. The in-line remote handles playback, calls, and voice-assistant activation through the same connection.

Questions about this item

What is the input impedance of the IER-EX15C drivers and how does it affect all-day listening?

The drivers present a 10 ohm load, so they draw very little current from a phone or laptop and can be driven to comfortable volumes without draining the source battery during extended sessions.

How much heat or noise does the in-line remote and microphone assembly generate during continuous use?

The remote, volume controls and 600 ohm microphone are completely passive, so they produce no audible noise and no perceptible heat even after hours of calls or music playback.

Which devices must already have a USB-C port with audio support for these headphones to work?

Any smartphone, tablet, laptop or gaming console that delivers analogue or digital audio over its USB-C connector will drive the IER-EX15C without an adapter or separate power source.
