Does anyone just feels extremely annoyed when other people are playing their videos on loudspeaker? (sh.itjust.works)

My heartbeat just goes up. It just triggers me so fucking much.

Even talking does't trigger me that much, it's something about that phone speaker's weak crackling sound, I despise that. It's like the REVERSE of asmr.

You can even get shitty wired earphones for like 3 quid on amazon or at a corner sh

To be fair, if you're talking 3.5mm headphones/earbuds, you're likely going to need to add a USB DAC with that too, as most current smartphones don't have a 3.5mm jack.

That doesn't fundamentally change the point on cost

you're talking maybe $6+ more on Amazon

but it does cost more.

    You don't need a DAC with USB C.

    You need a DAC somewhere, though there are headphones that incorporate one so that you don't need one independent of the headphones. I just don't know if the parent commenter is referring to ones that incorporate one or not, whether his corner-store-three-pound ones are 3.5 mm or USB C ones.

    The DAC is in the same device as for the 3.5mm jack. Sometimes in the same hw, maybe USB chip.

    USB-C specifically provides for analog audio pins and specifically to try to make it easier for manufacturers to eliminate the analog 3.5mm jack.

    I agree that ones in the headphones exist but it is VERYV rare. Only slightly less rare than USB-A headphones that incorporated their own DAC.

    Depends. Some phones can push actual audio through basic USB-C adapter (using their built-in DAC). Some other just won't, and the only way they can work is if you use an active adapter that shows up as an audio device on your phone. It's rarely if ever explicitly said which phone needs an actual adapter or not.

    On my old Xiaomi MiA2, the "headphone jack" USB adapter was completely passive, just wiring. It won't work on my Pixel phone.
