Mascom International stocks the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter at KSh 280, brand new and sealed, ready at our Nairobi CBD shop. It is a short metal converter with a silver Type-C plug on one end and a 3.5mm female socket on the other, joined by a bright orange cable. Plug it into a phone's USB-C port, then plug your wired earphones into the socket. The box calls it a digital audio converter that works plug and play. Find the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter at the Old Mutual Building on Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, beside our other Amaya audio cables.
Designed for commuters, students and remote workers, the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter fixes a frustrating gap. Many newer phones from Samsung, Redmi, Tecno, Infinix and Oppo dropped the headphone jack, leaving good wired earphones in a drawer. This adapter brings them back. The box says the 3.5mm cable control supports music, calls, in-line remote control and karaoke, so the button on your earphones can still pause a song or answer a call. University students at Kenyatta or JKUAT can revise with recorded lectures playing, and matatu commuters can take calls on the way to Westlands without digging out the phone.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell loose adapters with no packaging, Mascom International sells the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter sealed. Each unit can be tested on request and is covered by a 6-month warranty. At Mascom International, we're seeing more buyers keep their trusted wired earphones instead of paying for wireless buds that need charging during KPLC outages. At KSh 280, the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter costs far less than swapping good wired earphones for a Bluetooth pair. Visit our Kimathi Street counter to try it with your own phone, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery.
Common Questions About the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter
How much is the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter in Kenya?
The Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter sells for KSh 280 brand new at Mascom International, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. The price covers the adapter, a 6-month warranty on manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery anywhere in Kenya. The Amaya AUX-02 Type-C to 3.5mm Audio Cable costs KSh 20 more at KSh 300, and the Amaya AUX-08 Audio Adapter sits at the same KSh 280. Earphones are not included, so bring your own pair or add one to your order.
What is the difference between the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter and the Amaya AUX-02 Type-C to 3.5mm Audio Cable?
The Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter ends in a 3.5mm female socket, so wired earphones plug straight into it. The Amaya AUX-02 is a 1-metre nylon braided lead meant for running from the phone to a stereo or speaker AUX port. Choose the AUX-07 for earphones and headsets on a jackless phone. Choose the AUX-02 when you want to play music into a car, matatu or home sound system, and it costs KSh 20 more.
Can I take calls on Safaricom and Airtel with the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter?
Yes, the box says the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter supports calling, so earphones with a built-in microphone carry your voice on Safaricom, Airtel Kenya or Telkom calls. The adapter does not touch the network; it only passes sound and the microphone signal between phone and earphones. That makes it handy for M-Pesa agents and shop attendants who take calls hands-free in busy Nairobi streets. WhatsApp voice notes and Zoom calls work the same way.
Which phones work with the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter?
The Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter works with phones that send audio through their USB-C port. That includes most recent Samsung, Redmi, Tecno, Infinix and Oppo phones without a headphone jack, plus iPhone 15 and later. It does not fit Lightning iPhones from iPhone 5 to iPhone 14. A few budget phones charge over Type-C but do not output sound through it, so bring your handset to our Kimathi Street shop and test before buying.
Do the buttons on my earphones work through the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter?
The box for the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter says it supports remote (in-line) control, so the button on many wired earphones keeps working. Typically a single press plays or pauses music and answers a call. Exact behaviour depends on your earphones and phone, and volume buttons do not respond on every model. Try your own pair at Mascom International before you pay, and our staff will show you how the controls behave on your handset.
Can I use the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter for karaoke?
Yes, karaoke is one of the uses printed on the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter box. Plug a wired headset or earphones with a microphone into the socket, open a karaoke app on your phone, and sing along with the backing track in your ears. It suits TikTok singers recording covers in a Kilimani apartment or friends at a house party. For loud group singing, connect the phone to a speaker instead with an Amaya AUX cable.
Who should buy the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter, and who should skip it?
Buy the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter if you own good wired earphones and a phone without a headphone jack. Students, call-centre staff and daily commuters get the most from it. Skip it if your phone still has a 3.5mm jack, because you need nothing extra. Skip it too if you want music in a car: the Amaya AUX-05 3-in-1 Audio Cable at KSh 480 connects Type-C, Lightning and 3.5mm phones straight to a stereo.
Does the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter need charging or an app?
No, the Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter has no battery and needs no app, because the box describes it as plug and play. Your phone powers it through the USB-C port the moment you plug it in. Some phones show a small notice that an audio accessory is connected. Remove the adapter when you want to charge the phone, since it has a single Type-C plug and no separate charging port.
Technical Specifications
Core Function
- Type-C to 3.5mm conversion — turns a phone's USB-C port into a standard headphone socket for wired earphones and headsets.
- Digital audio converter, as the box states — the phone sends sound digitally and the adapter turns it into the analogue signal earphones use.
- Music playback — songs, podcasts, sermons and YouTube audio play through any 3.5mm earphones you already own.
- Calling support — earphones with a built-in microphone carry your voice on regular calls as well as WhatsApp and Zoom calls.
- Remote (in-line) control support — the play, pause and answer button on many wired earphones keeps working through the adapter.
- Karaoke support — listed on the box, so a headset with a microphone works for singing along with karaoke apps.
Compatibility
- Phone side — a USB-C plug for phones that output audio over the port, including many recent Samsung, Redmi, Tecno, Infinix and Oppo phones.
- iPhone — fits iPhone 15 and later models with USB-C; Lightning iPhones need a different adapter or cable.
- Earphone side — a 3.5mm female socket that accepts standard wired earphones, headsets and 3.5mm AUX leads.
- Tablets and laptops — USB-C tablets and laptops that support USB audio can use it too, but test your device first.
- Plug and play — no app, no driver and no pairing, so it is ready within seconds of plugging in.
- Test before buying — some budget handsets do not pass sound through Type-C, so try yours at our counter before paying.
Build
- Silver metal Type-C plug — a sturdy housing that holds its shape through daily plugging and unplugging from the phone.
- Metal construction, as printed on the box — sturdier than the thin plastic dongles sold loose by street hawkers on River Road.
- Short orange cable — bright enough to spot quickly in a bag, and short enough to sit neatly against the phone.
- 3.5mm female socket — grips the earphone plug firmly, so it stays put when the phone moves around in a pocket.
- Handling care — hold the plug rather than the cable when removing it, and avoid folding the lead sharply at either end.
- Brand new and sealed — every unit comes in its original Amaya retail packaging from Mascom International.
Inclusions
- One Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter — the only item in the box, according to the packaging.
- Earphones not included — bring your own pair, or ask our staff to add a wired pair to your order.
- Warranty — 6 months from Mascom International covering manufacturing defects under normal use.
- Model code AUX-07 — mention it on WhatsApp so our team confirms the exact adapter before dispatch.
- Price — KSh 280, a small spend that keeps a good pair of wired earphones in daily use.
Package Contents
The Amaya AUX-07 Type-C to 3.5mm Adapter ships in its sealed Amaya retail box, and the adapter is the only item inside. Earphones, headsets and chargers are not included, so plan to use a pair you already own. If you need wired earphones as well, our staff at the Kimathi Street shop can suggest a pair and test both together with your phone before you leave, or add them to the same delivery.
