What to do if my Galaxy phone doesn't have an earphone jack
There are several ways to enjoy clear and high-quality music through your headphones without a 3.5mm headphone jack. Follow the below guide to learn alternative methods of 3.5mm earphones.
Method 1. Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter
If your headphones have a 3.5mm headphone jack, you can use an adaptor to enjoy amazing audio quality. Simply plug in a USB-C to 3.5mm Adapter to your device, then your headphones into the adapter.
The Samsung USB-C Adapter lets you connect devices that use a standard 3.5mm audio plug to your USB-C devices.
Method 2. Wireless headphones
Wireless headphones, such as the Galaxy Buds, give you high-quality sound and easy, hands-free music control, with an instant connection to your Galaxy device.
Note: Some USB Type-C earphones and USB Type-C adapters (sold separately) may not be compatible with your Galaxy device and some functions and features may not work properly. Make sure they are compatible with the device before purchase.
Method 3. USB-C wired headphones
If you prefer wired headphones, you can use the USB-C port on your device to plug in a pair of USB-C wired headphones. Use USB C- type wired earphones that support Digital Output. If you use the Analog typed USB audio accessories, an error message about “Not-compatibility" or "Connected USB device isn't supported" may appear on the screen and you will not hear any sound.
The device may not be compatible with earphones that use a different audio output method or were made by a different manufacturer.
