Just a heads up, I'm not an apple user, it never clicked with me but this might be the best spot to get an answer for my specific use case. What I do like was their old 3.5 mm jack earphones, but the playback controls never worked right on my android phone, probably because of the wiring layout or some DRM screwery. I've been looking to buy a second pair of them as my primary one has been confiscated by my better half, and I saw that they put out a USB-C version of those.

If any one has those headphones, can you test them out on an android device, or if you are sure can comment if the volume and playback controls work outside Apple's devices or are they locked to just their devices? I didn't see that info in any reviews and would know that bit of info before buying them blind.
