I have to disqualify the SoundMAGIC E80D Digital USB C Headphones because it looks like their 90° plug won’t fit with the rather thick otterbox case I have on my phone.

Any other suggestions? Would be using primarily for phone but also for laptop, if that makes any difference.

EDIT: Thanks to everyone who responded 🙂👍Looks like I’ve got several good leads to follow, so I’d better get started!

    1. You can buy DSP earphones with a replaceable cable, but I haven’t found anything cheap that sounds as good as the 3.5mm connection (which means the DSP sucks). So buy a dongle separately, like the Apple one or something of similar quality

    I dunno if it’s good quality, but the install process and daily use on this item has been great for me, moving my headset easily between machines through a KVM without issue.

    Let me know if it sounds good, OP, or see what others may say in response to this one.

    I fully support anything that continues with common, reliable hardware - 3.5mm - and interchangeable parts - so no apple, really.

      I meant the Apple 3.5mm to usb-c dongle, which does the same job for $9

      Of course, if you know that this other one world’s for you, by all means
