toast1 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Can I plug my phone 35mm headphones into my Windows PC? Can this be done with the USB socket or only just 35mm headphones? Thank you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 If your PC has a headphone jack then yes you can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shdmn Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) You mean 3.5mm. They are different because the headphones designed for the phone have 3 rings + ground on the jack to accommodated mic and stereo headphone. PC 3.5mm jacks only have 2 rings + ground for stereo audio but use a separate 2 ring + ground jack for the mic. It should still work for speaker in a PC but it may not depending on the quality of the jack. I don't think there is any harm in trying. https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-difference-between-two-stripe-earphone-headphone-and-three-stripe-earphone-headphone Edited October 30, 2021 by shdmn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toast1 Posted October 30, 2021 Author Share Posted October 30, 2021 No I'm not kidding. Could I use a 35mm splitter, that plugs into both 35mm PC sockets, with a female stereo socket? Or a USB 35mm female to USB male? Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KannikaP Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) No audio goes via a USB DATA connection. The 35mm, minijack socket IS an audio output from a soundcard. You could buy a cheapo USB - Audio interface, or an expensive one. Edited October 30, 2021 by KannikaP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

userabcd Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 (edited) Plug 3.5mm into wondows pc yes if it has 3.5mm socket. Usb can work but you need one of those small usb sound cards with the 3.5mm jack. Edited October 31, 2021 by userabcd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
