No headphone socket

[Gwylan]

Just discovered that my newish phone has no headphone socket.

Challenged to find a solution

Using the B/T for my pretty but not very smart smart watch.

Is there some way I can use headphones of some sort to work at the same time as the watch?

Adapters are available

My Samsung android phone can handle more than one BT device at the same time. I have no problem using BT headphones while my watch is still connected.

Ah! A re-assigned evening is coming up then.

What would an adaptor do? There is nothing to plug anything into.

Have got a B/T receiver that works, but cannot get more than one channel.

Regarding Samsung versions, mine is a lot further down the food chain.
My purchase target is to get a phone that is less than the insurance, currently £75.
But £90 is still £90 when they fall in the water.

Right back to the B/T adaptor.

It would be helpful if you gave the model and name of your newish mobile.

A household name, Oukitel C17 Pro.

A jolly cheap model. Not my first from this manufacturer.

The phone must have a socket of some sort to charge it: probably USB C. Thus you either get a USB C to mini jack adapter or headphones with a USB C plug in it....
That said, your phone should be able to cope with the watch and the phones via Bluetooth.

If it has a usb-c charger, did it come with a usb-c-to-3.5mm jack converter? These plug into what you might normally think of as the power socket. Downside obviously that you can't charge and listen to music through headphones at the same time.

Is this a special boat phone?

According to the review it does have a jack for headphones.

What kind of lead do you use to charge it?
