It sounds like there’s a little motorcycle riding around in my earbuds. The frequency changes with the brightness of the screen. I play 100% with headphones so I have to return it, but if they all (or a significant percentage) of OLED units have this problem then I’ll just return it and not get another one right now.

Edit: it’s good to hear that not everyone has this problem. I’d be curious for those people who aren’t having the problem to test with a bright white screen. Mine gets worse as the brightness of the screen increases.

Edit 2: I used a MillSO 1/4” to 3.5mm adapter and my Sennheiser HD558s and I can’t hear the buzzing like I can with my Apple earbuds.

    Anyone that has moderately sensitive IEMs will have this issue. Those that claim not to have the issue either have higher resistance headphones, or do not have good hearing in the frequency of the interference.

    My suggestion is to get the Apple usbc to 3.5 dongle. Cheap and actually a very accurate dac. Just need to go into the bios and change the usb configuration from DRD to xihc(or something like that) so you can plug in and it will start working without having to reboot the system.
