The Google Pixel 6 is one of the biggest smartphones in the current market not made by Apple, and like its fierce competitors, the headphone jack has been removed. This leaves you with two options for music listening through your phone, Bluetooth, and USB-C earphones. I find that Type-C earphones are the most budget-friendly and easiest to manage of the two. They can provide the simplest listening experience while also having the opportunity to deliver higher-quality audio depending on if you’re using a lossless streaming service.
If you go to Amazon right now, you will see a wide variety of Type C earbuds that you can use with the latest Android smartphones, and it can be hard to choose which sets might be the one you’re looking for. Here is a list of what I think are some of the most worthwhile choices you can make when purchasing a new pair of earphones for your Google Pixel 6.
KLIM Fusion
If you are looking for a type C earphone that will stand a bit of wear, then the Fusion from KLIM will be the right choice. Compared to a lot of other earphones out there, the Fusion boasts a durable build that provides an impactful sound as well. Its hard aluminum housing ensures a long-lasting product that won’t suffer from fray or any environmental ware.
CoolMe Stage MagicÂ
You won’t see many type C earphones with as many features as the Stage Magic from CoolMe. It has options to expand the bass with its Super Bass feature, and a special gaming mode that utilizes spatial audio for heightened immersion. Using the Stage Magic in its gaming mode makes it the most ideal type C earphone to use with the Nintendo Switch. This is one of the best options strictly for the fun factor that comes at a great price.
Strauss & Wagner EM8C
By far the most detailed sound quality you will get on type C earphones. The EM8C from Strauss and Wagner has been a favorite for us here on MajorHiFi, and it continues to be a strong contender for one of the best type C earphones around. Read our review here.
Samsung Type C Earphones
It might be surprising for you to see Samsung’s stock earphones on this list, but when they come from AKG you know you’re getting something good. When bought separately, Samsung’s earphones become a hot item for any smartphone with a type C connection. You can expect a balanced sound signature and a remote/mic for calls.
PALOVUE SoundFlow
If you’re wondering what the most comfortable type C earphones are then the SoundFlow by PALOVUE has you covered. They come with a wide selection of ear tips to use so that the earphones will be comfortable no matter what your ear size is.
