I have to disqualify the SoundMAGIC E80D Digital USB C Headphones because it looks like their 90ยฐ plug won't fit with the rather thick otterbox case I have on my phone.

Any other suggestions? Would be using primarily for phone but also for laptop, if that makes any difference.

EDIT: Thanks to everyone who responded ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ‘Looks like I've got several good leads to follow, so I'd better get started!

The AKG Samsung earphones are decent, especially for the price.

The listing is wrong, they have no active noise cancelation:

They are fine for the price, but I don't like nondetachable cables

Yeah that's odd that the description lists them as noise canceling. They are definitely not.

Are you an alt account for the OP? I see you responding to nearly every comment.

As another comment wrote, seems like your best option would be to buy whatever IEMs you like and then buy a USB C cable for it. Just make sure the pins match your IEMs.

I replied because I researched the topic myself in the past
