I just ordered a set from Apple and I can’t get these to stay in my ear.
I got two pairs from logitech, but the max volume on those was far too quiet.
I got a dongle from Google to use some old AKG earbuds I had, and the inline controls rarely work.
Hoping to find something that has good quality audio, inline controls, decent volume, and eartips that stay in (and/or can be swapped). Preferably somewhere at or below the $20USD mark.
Thank you for any recommendations.
I would think that would be the preferable option, but I haven’t had any luck with the 3 that I have tried. I’ve tried one from Google, and two from Logitech. The Logitech ones both were too quiet, and all 3 seem to have occasional missed-triggers with inline controls when my home screen is locked. For some reason, only Apple’s USB-C Earbuds have behaved consistently well. I would be willing to settle for those, but they just keep slipping out of my head.
In fairness: I haven’t tried Apple’s specific dongle with my other earbuds. But I haven’t felt much confidence with dongles in general thus far. If I can’t find a USB-C set of earbuds that ticks the original post boxes, I may just have to gamble on that dongle.
Thank you again for this suggestion.
I’ve heard that Apple’s dongle is better than the others, but haven’t tried it myself. Otherwise, there are some more serious DAC around: https://www.amazon.com/TempoTec-Sonata-HD-PRO-Android/dp/B084YX4MZD. Best of luck!
