The Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 280, brand new and sealed at our Nairobi CBD shop. It belongs to the Amaya AUX converter series, the same family as the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter, and sells at the same price. Like its sibling, it is a short audio converter for phones that no longer have a 3.5mm headphone jack. Its exact phone-side connector is best confirmed before you buy, so check with our team in store or on WhatsApp. Collect the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter at the Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for buyers across Kenya who still love their wired earphones, the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter answers a simple need. Phone makers keep removing the headphone jack, yet wired earphones remain affordable, need no charging and keep working through KPLC power cuts. A short converter like this one bridges that gap without a Bluetooth pair or another battery to manage. Students at the University of Nairobi, office workers in Upper Hill and commuters on long matatu rides all rely on converters like it. Tell us your phone model and we will confirm whether the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter or the AUX-07 suits it better.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops guess at compatibility, Mascom International lets you test the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter with your own phone before paying. That matters for a converter, because the right plug and audio support decide whether it works at all. Customers across Nairobi tell us a quick test at the counter saves a wasted trip back. The adapter carries a 6-month Mascom warranty against manufacturing defects. Walk into our Kimathi Street shop with your phone and earphones, or send a WhatsApp message with your phone model for a reply before you order.
Common Questions About the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter
How much is the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter in Kenya?
The Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter costs KSh 280 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price includes a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. It matches its sibling, the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter, which is also KSh 280, while the Amaya AUX-02 Type-C to 3.5mm Audio Cable costs KSh 300. Earphones are sold separately, and our team can confirm the connector on WhatsApp before you pay.
How does the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter compare with the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter?
The Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter and the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter are siblings in the same Amaya AUX converter series, both priced at KSh 280. The AUX-07 is confirmed as a metal Type-C to 3.5mm converter with an orange cable and support for calls and in-line controls. For the AUX-08, ask our team to show you its connector and features side by side with the AUX-07 in store, then pick the one that fits your phone.
Is the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter useful during power cuts in Kenya?
Wired earphones used through the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter need no charging of their own, which helps during KPLC outages. Bluetooth earbuds must be charged, and a flat charging case on a long blackout night in Kisumu or Eldoret means silence. With a wired pair, only your phone battery matters. For long outages, keep a charged power bank such as the Amaya APB-P128 nearby, and your music, sermons and news keep playing until the lights return.
Which phones does the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter work with?
The Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter is made for phones that lack a 3.5mm headphone jack, but its exact phone-side plug should be confirmed before you buy. Send your phone model on WhatsApp, or bring the phone to our Kimathi Street shop, and our team will check the fit quickly. If your phone plays audio over USB-C, the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter is a known option at the same price. Some budget phones send no sound through their port, so testing first helps.
What can I do with the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter?
The Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter is a short converter that lets a phone without a headphone jack connect to 3.5mm audio gear. Typical uses for this kind of converter are listening to music on wired earphones, watching YouTube on a crowded matatu without disturbing others, and following online lessons. Whether the AUX-08 also supports calls and earphone buttons is worth confirming in store, since the AUX-07 box lists both and the AUX-08 details are checked unit by unit.
Can I test the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter before buying at Mascom International?
Yes, Mascom International welcomes you to test the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter with your own phone and earphones at our Kimathi Street counter. That is the surest way to confirm the connector fits and that your phone passes sound through it. Staff can set up the AUX-07 beside it so you hear both. If you order for delivery to Nakuru, Mombasa or another town, we confirm the fit on WhatsApp first using your phone model.
Who should buy the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter, and who should skip it?
Buy the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter if your phone has no headphone jack, you own wired earphones you trust, and our team has confirmed the connector matches your phone. Skip it if your phone still has a 3.5mm jack, since your earphones plug in directly. Skip it too for car audio: the Amaya AUX-05 3-in-1 Audio Cable at KSh 480 links Type-C, Lightning and 3.5mm phones to a stereo. Lightning iPhone owners should ask about a matching option first.
Is the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter genuine Amaya stock?
Yes, the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter at Mascom International is brand new, sealed Amaya stock from the brand's AUX converter series. Amaya is a Chinese consumer-electronics accessories brand, and Mascom International carries its cables, adapters, chargers and power banks at our Nairobi CBD shop. Buying from a walk-in store with a 6-month warranty protects you from the unbranded converters sold loose around River Road, which come with no warranty and no one to return them to.

Package Contents
The Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter arrives in its sealed Amaya retail box, with the adapter as the only item inside. Earphones, AUX leads and chargers are not included.

Mascom International backs the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter with a 6-month warranty covering manufacturing defects under normal use.
