      I use one of those with my laptop (via a USB-C to USB-A adapter) because the normal headphone out is full of noise.

      One of the best things Apple has ever made.

        It actually works so well. And it's pretty cheap too, for the quality. All other high quality ones are way more expensive. The official Samsung one is also terrible

          They should be dirt cheap because it’s a passive cable. USB Type-C controller on the host detects the special alt-mode and the left/right signals are piped right in. It’s essentially a non-round 3.5mm port.
