Questions about Apple EarPods (USB-C)

Unfortunately, we do not have any personal user experience with this product, but I would be happy to forward your question to the Community, perhaps a Community member will be able to help you 😊.

Apple's EarPods (USB-C) are not compatible with an iPhone 12 mini, as this iPhone uses Lightning rather than USB-C connectivity. These earphones are designed to work with Apple devices equipped with USB-C connectivity, such as the iPhone 15 and recent iPads.

I have the A33 5G, they work well with it.

yes works

The volume control and microphone work perfectly on several Android smartphones (Samsung, XIAOMI) and Windows. Nobody has ever complained about the microphone when making calls or in team meetings. You should definitely enter the serial number of the headset in the Apple warranty check because unfortunately there are many counterfeits on the market!

Yes, the EarPods (USB-C) work with a Windows 11 laptop via the USB-C port. Use includes both the microphone and the volume control. Users report that the EarPods play audio without any problems and that the volume control buttons and media playback controls work on Windows laptops. However, it is possible that the recognition of the EarPods depends on the specific hardware of the laptop. In some cases, users have had to take additional steps to ensure that the EarPods are recognised correctly, such as running system commands to repair audio settings.

Can't confirm that the EarPods don't work with Android, but I don't know how it is with Samsung S21 FE. They work perfectly with Samsung Galaxy A33 5G
