Been using Android for over a decade now. With the recent removal of 3.5mm jacks, I had to look into usb-c to 3.5mm adapters, because I prefer using my wired IEMs.

It turns out the apple usb-c to 3.5mm adapter is actually top notch, and only costs $9. Plenty of folks use that as an upgrade for their computers built in soundboard, because the digital to analog converter on the adapter is excellent and superior to most built in soundboards.

This is solid advice for anyone who loves their music.

I miss the 3.5 so much. Especially the LG G20(on onward) series. But it is not to be. But the apple adapter on your phone is a great substitute. I've done it for a while now.

Didn't know it was used for folks on the comp, so that pretty neat to know.

I've always liked their earbuds, they're the only reputable manufacturers that still use the old style rather than those SkullCandy or beats ass inserts that don't fit in my ear, so they're the only headphones I can actually use. The old Bose inserts worked for me too but idek if Bose makes that style anymore.

I cannot do the suction cup ones at all. But the Galaxy Buds Live work really well for me. They're a little weird at first but after a few wears they're like my favorite. Not for all ear shapes though but worth looking into.

Thanks, I'll look into them.
