Samsung USB-C to 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter (EE-UC10JUWEGWW)

Built-in DAC · 24-bit/192kHz

Why Samsung Original Matters for Audio

A USB-C to 3.5mm adapter is not a simple passive cable — it contains a digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) chip that translates the digital audio signal from the phone’s USB-C port into the analogue signal required by standard headphones. The quality of the DAC chip directly determines audio output quality. Generic third-party adapters use low-cost DAC chips that often introduce noise, reduce dynamic range and cap audio resolution — audio quality through them is typically worse than through a native headphone jack. Samsung’s EE-UC10 uses a DAC rated to 24-bit/192kHz, which matches or exceeds the audio resolution of the native headphone jacks Samsung removed in the Note 10 generation. This means connecting high-quality headphones through the Samsung adapter produces audio output comparable to what users had before headphone jacks were discontinued. For users who own good wired headphones — particularly IEMs (in-ear monitors) or studio headphones — the genuine Samsung adapter is the correct choice to preserve audio quality rather than accepting the degradation of generic alternatives.

Full Headset Support · Mic + Controls

Calls, Voice and In-line Controls Work

Many third-party USB-C audio adapters support audio playback only — the microphone on a headset does not function, in-line remote buttons do not register, and call audio is routed back to the phone’s speaker. Samsung’s EE-UC10 is designed as a full headset adapter: the CTIA 4-pole 3.5mm standard is supported, meaning headsets with a built-in microphone and in-line controls (play/pause, volume, call answer/end) function exactly as they would through a native headphone jack. For users who use wired headsets for calls — business calls, voice assistants, voice recording — this is essential. Samsung’s own AKG-tuned in-ear headphones (EO-IG955, EO-IA500) and any CTIA-standard headset are fully supported. The adapter is also compatible with standard 2-pole 3.5mm headphones (audio only, no microphone) for music listening without call functions.

Universal Samsung USB-C Compatibility

Works Across the Entire Galaxy Range

The EE-UC10JUWEGWW is Samsung’s universal USB-C audio adapter, compatible with every Samsung Galaxy device that uses USB-C and has no 3.5mm jack — this covers the entire flagship and mid-range range from Note 10 onwards. Galaxy S20, S21, S22, S23, S24 and their Ultra/Plus variants, Galaxy Note 10, Note 10+, Note 20, Note 20 Ultra, Galaxy Tab S7, S7+, S7 FE, S8, S8+, S8 Ultra, S9, S9+, S9 FE, Galaxy A-series with USB-C and no headphone jack, Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip series — all are compatible. The adapter also works with any other device that has a USB-C port and outputs digital audio through it, including non-Samsung Android phones and laptops, though Samsung’s tuning is optimised for Galaxy hardware.

Right choice if you…

✔ Own a Samsung Galaxy S20/S21/S22/S23/S24, Note 10/20, Tab S7/S8/S9 or any USB-C Samsung without a headphone jack
✔ Want to use wired headphones or headsets with full microphone and call control support
✔ Want genuine Samsung quality — correct DAC, correct tuning, guaranteed compatibility
✔ Use quality IEMs or wired headphones and want to preserve audio resolution (24-bit/192kHz)
✔ Need a replacement for a lost or damaged original Samsung adapter

Consider something else if…

✖ Your Samsung Galaxy still has a 3.5mm headphone jack (Galaxy A-series budget models, some older S-series) — you do not need an adapter
✖ You want to charge and listen simultaneously — the EE-UC10 occupies the USB-C port, leaving no charging port available; you would need a USB-C hub with audio and charging pass-through instead

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this adapter work with the Galaxy S21 Ultra, S20, Note 20 and Tab S7?

Yes. The EE-UC10JUWEGWW is compatible with all Samsung Galaxy USB-C devices that do not have a built-in headphone jack, including the entire S20, S21, S22, S23 and S24 series, Note 10, Note 10+, Note 20, Note 20 Ultra, Tab S7, S7+, Tab S8 series, Tab S9 series, Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip series.

Does the microphone work through this adapter for calls?

Yes. The adapter supports CTIA 4-pole 3.5mm headsets, meaning the microphone, call answer/end button and in-line volume controls on compatible headsets all function correctly. This includes Samsung’s own EO-IG955 and EO-IA500 earphones, as well as any standard CTIA headset.

Can I charge my phone while using this adapter?

No. The EE-UC10 occupies the USB-C port entirely. When the adapter is connected, the charging port is unavailable. For simultaneous charging and audio, you would need a USB-C hub or splitter that provides both a 3.5mm output and a USB-C charging pass-through — this is a separate product not included here.

Why choose the Samsung original over a cheaper third-party adapter?

Third-party adapters vary significantly in DAC chip quality — many cap audio output well below the 24-bit/192kHz specification of the EE-UC10, introduce background noise, or fail to support the microphone. Samsung’s adapter is specifically engineered for Galaxy device audio output and is the only adapter guaranteed to deliver full headset functionality and maximum audio resolution on Samsung hardware.

What does “bulk packaging” mean?

Bulk packaging means the adapter is genuine Samsung — brand new and unused — but supplied without the retail box. It is the same product that ships in the Note 10 and S21 box as an included accessory, sourced directly from Samsung’s supply chain. There is no difference in the adapter itself — only the packaging is omitted.
