    Just a heads up for android users (like me):

    It might not work at full power on android because fuck you. They made it so it has only 50% power on android.

      I’ve never heard this before. And I use it on a VR headset. It’s actually louder than another option I have.

        Yes, Apple’s USB-C > 3.5mm DAC dongle is not properly compatible with Android devices . The roughly -25dB gain applied appears to be by design.
