I don't use any myself, but these might be helpful:
Thank you very much for this post. I realize you gave me the right answer to the wrong question, because of my poor wording. My mistake. I have updated my original post. I should have specified I am looking for "earbuds" rather than "headphones".
regardless: these articles are helpful. Thank you!
Ah! You may want to consider just getting a USB-C DAC adapter and pairing it with your preferred earbuds. I've heard the Apple one works well with Android devices.
I would think that would be the preferable option, but I haven't had any luck with the 3 that I have tried. I've tried one from Google, and two from Logitech. The Logitech ones both were too quiet, and all 3 seem to have occasional missed-triggers with inline controls when my home screen is locked. For some reason, only Apple's USB-C Earbuds have behaved consistently well. I would be willing to settle for those, but they just keep slipping out of my head.
In fairness: I haven't tried Apple's specific dongle with my other earbuds. But I haven't felt much confidence with dongles in general thus far. If I can't find a USB-C set of earbuds that ticks the original post boxes, I may just have to gamble on that dongle.
Thank you again for this suggestion.
I've heard that Apple's dongle is better than the others, but haven't tried it myself. Otherwise, there are some more serious DAC around: https://www.amazon.com/TempoTec-Sonata-HD-PRO-Android/dp/B084YX4MZD. Best of luck!
