    The USB-C one is a great deal, and good quality. If you need one for other devices too.

      Just a heads up for android users (like me):

      It might not work at full power on android because fuck you. They made it so it has only 50% power on android.

        I’ve never heard this before. And I use it on a VR headset. It’s actually louder than another option I have.

          Yes, Apple’s USB-C > 3.5mm DAC dongle is not properly compatible with Android devices . The roughly -25dB gain applied appears to be by design.

          Yeah, I’m not here to say it’ll fix every USB need you have for a device. It’s only $9. It’s not a USB hub.
