USB-C - 3.5mm headphone adapter

[toycar69]

Hi guys,

I've got to work today and found I've not brought my bundled USB-C - 3.5mm Headphone adapter with me. I'm thinking it's probably a good idea to get a spare or two.
Looking around it seems that not all types are compatible with all phones.
Can anyone confirm if an adapter compatible with other Huawei phones e.g. P20 will work with Mediapad M5?

I'm thinking of something like:

Thanks for any advice!

The one I bought for my M5 8.4 was https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/USB-C-Ty...cd803a66b:m:mTROBXmtYcyehHK4G3vWF6A:rk:1:pf:0

Only used it a couple of times, but seems solid enough.

Thanks for that! Just what I was looking for. :good:

This works great if you're wanting something that sounds a bit better than stock.

This one works fine, and you can charge at the same time, but it disables quick-charge (must only connect the + and - connections and not the ones used for data).

The M5 supports analog audio directly out of the USB C port, that is how the bundled USBC-3.5mm adapter works. I found that my bundled adapter makes clicking sounds if the usb connector wiggles at all.
I bought 3 of these adapters (only $1 each so I bought 3 incase any were duds) https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07KT2F7K7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.
It works like the bundled adapter, it doesn't need a DAC chip as it takes the analog audio directly from the usbc port. It doesn't click like the huawei adapter, sound is excellent. 1 of 3 the connector case on the usb-c end slides off as if its not glued properly, the other 2 of 3 are perfect.

I also bought digital adapter with a built-in DAC chip, https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07MX553YX/ref=twister_B07KSSXZ8Q?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
It works fine, sound is excellent, it drains the battery a bit faster however so I choose to use the analog adapter.
