Bose or AirPods, you can get wired earphones with a USB-C jack.

pro tip you will most likely lose one or both of them, so try a cheap wireless pair from amazon (soundpeats, anker) first. Airpods are easier to find with apples tracking map.

My redmi airdots work great for 20 dollars. The only downside is they only last 2.5 hours. Enough for the gym, not long enough for other chit.

I use a set of Amazon Aukey wireless for about $30. Work and sound great. Have a spare set in case lost or broken.

After Apple ditched the hole for earbuds many of the other manufacturers followed their lead. The issue I have always had is that my audiophile friends claim that sound through a wire is superior to sound through the air. This is a debatable point but so far they seem correct. That is why I have kept this 4 generations old Samsung.

S10+/s20+/ and s21+
I am told there is an adapter for the charging port that allows old earbuds to work on a new phone but have not researched it deeply.

listen. spend the extra couple bucks and get quality. get the AirPods OG 2. $129 for something you will use every day and have for a few years. once you go wireless you will never go back. it's magical. so nice not to have to mess with wires - especially at the gym. and the little charging case is awesome too. i have a Google Pixel XL 2 + AirPods OG 2 and they work flawlessly together. just get the AirPods. trust me. just get them. once you have them you'll be like WTF was i waiting for. wired earbuds in 2021 is just dumb.

Wired have better sound, better sound is more important to me

My first set only had 3 hrs life before you had to recharge, it was so pointless.
