Hoco M116 Type-C Wired Earphones

The Hoco M116 Type-C is the USB-C sibling of Hoco’s M116 wired earphone — a Type-C digital plug instead of Lightning, so it fits modern Android phones, newer iPhones (15/16), tablets, and laptops that dropped the headphone jack. No Bluetooth pairing, no charging, no battery: plug it in and it plays. If you searched for the Hoco M116 price in Bangladesh, this page covers exactly what these earphones are and what they do, with every spec tied to the manufacturer and distributor record. You can also browse the full Earbuds & Earphones range at Gadget Superb to compare wired and wireless options.

Per the verified spec record, the Hoco M116 Type-C pairs 10mm dynamic drivers with a Type-C digital plug, a 1.2m tangle-free cable, a single-button inline remote with built-in mic, and a light 15g build in black. It is plug-and-play on USB-C devices — no adapter, no dongle, no charging. The rest of this page walks through sound, cable, compatibility, and controls, and flags the one compatibility check that matters before you buy.

Sound quality and drivers

The Hoco M116 Type-C uses 10mm dynamic drivers — the figure stated consistently across the manufacturer spec sheet and distributors. Because the plug is digital, audio travels from the phone as a digital signal and the earphones handle the conversion themselves; there’s no Bluetooth codec in the path and no wireless compression. For everyday listening — music, podcasts, video, calls — that means clean, direct sound with the bass presence dynamic drivers are known for.

Fit does the usual heavy lifting: the ergonomic in-ear buds seal the ear canal, and a good seal means fuller bass and better passive isolation from street noise. If the sound feels thin on first listen, reseat the buds before judging the drivers — with in-ears, fit is almost always the variable.

Design, fit and comfort

The M116 Type-C is built from ABS + TPE — hard-wearing housings with a flexible, high-elastic cable jacket — in all black. At 15g it is genuinely light: the cable’s weight disappears behind the phone, and the short-bodied buds with silicone tips sit securely for long sessions. The hoco-branded inline remote pod carries the single control button and the microphone pinhole, positioned on the cable at a natural thumb height.

The design is deliberately understated — black buds, black cable, one small remote pod. Nothing glows, nothing needs an app. For buyers who want earphones that vanish into the day, that restraint is the point.

Cable, connector and compatibility

The connector is a USB Type-C digital plug with an oval metal shell — the same port shape your phone charges with. Because it’s digital, the earphones carry their own conversion circuitry, which is why they work without a separate DAC dongle on phones that dropped the 3.5mm jack. The cable is 1.2 meters of tangle-free wiring: pocket-to-ear with slack to spare.

The compatibility check: this version is for devices with a USB-C port — modern Android phones (Xiaomi, OPPO, OnePlus, Huawei and others), iPhone 15/16, USB-C tablets, and laptops. Plug-and-play: insert and audio routes automatically, no settings to change. It does not fit Lightning iPhones (iPhone 14 and earlier) — those need the Hoco M116 Lightning sibling — and it won’t fit a 3.5mm jack without an adapter. One rule: match the plug to your device’s port and you’re done.

Call quality and controls

Calls run through the built-in microphone with the single-button inline remote: one press for play/pause or answer/end, double-press to skip tracks (the manual in the box lists the exact patterns). The mic sits on the cable near the mouth — the right position for clear voice pickup on calls, voice notes, and voice commands. Volume stays on the phone’s own buttons, which is the honest design for a single-key remote.

The wired connection skips the two classic wireless failure modes: no Bluetooth dropout mid-sentence, no earbud battery dying on a long call. For buyers who take a lot of calls and never want to charge one more device, that reliability is the M116’s quiet superpower.

What’s in the Box

Accessories are only included when the description says so — per store policy, photographs are illustrative and packaging or small details may differ. Check the box on arrival and tell the store the same day if anything is wrong.

Who the Hoco M116 Type-C suits best

The M116 Type-C suits the modern Android (or iPhone 15/16) owner whose phone has no headphone jack and who doesn’t want a dongle life: students, commuters, office workers, and heavy callers who want audio that works the instant it plugs in. It also suits anyone who lost their last wireless pair — wired is the sane, cheap backup that lives in the bag and never needs charging.

Who should look elsewhere: Lightning-iPhone owners (you need the Hoco M116 Lightning version), anyone whose device still has a 3.5mm jack and prefers a direct analog plug (see the Geeoo X10 in the store’s range), and buyers who need on-cable volume buttons. If wireless freedom matters more, the Gadget Superb shop carries Bluetooth alternatives — compare honestly against the M116’s zero-maintenance pitch.

Frequently asked questions

1. Will the Hoco M116 Type-C work with my phone?

If your phone has a USB-C port — most modern Android phones, plus iPhone 15/16 — yes, it plugs straight in with no adapter or dongle. If your iPhone uses Lightning (iPhone 14 and earlier), it won’t fit; choose the Hoco M116 Lightning version instead. Match the plug to your port and you’re done.

2. Does it work with tablets and laptops?

Yes, if they have a USB-C port — plug-and-play, audio routes automatically with no settings to change. That’s a genuine advantage over the Lightning version: one pair can cover your phone, tablet, and laptop if they all use USB-C.

3. Do I need to charge it or pair it?

Neither. It’s wired and the phone powers it through the USB-C plug, so there’s no battery to charge and no Bluetooth to pair. Plug it in and audio plays — the whole setup takes about two seconds.

4. How do the controls work?

A single-button inline remote handles the essentials: one press for play/pause or answer/end call, double-press to skip a track (the manual in the box lists the exact patterns). Volume is adjusted on your device’s own buttons, since the remote carries one key rather than a rocker.

5. Is the microphone good for calls?

The built-in in-line mic sits on the cable near your mouth — the right position for clear voice pickup on calls, voice notes, and voice commands. Wired calls skip Bluetooth dropouts and dead-battery interruptions entirely, which is the real reliability advantage.

6. What does the 10mm driver mean for sound?

10mm is the diaphragm diameter — the standard size for this class of wired earphone and the manufacturer’s stated figure. Because the plug is digital, there’s no Bluetooth compression in the path: clean, direct everyday sound. As always with in-ears, a good seal matters more than the number for bass.

7. How long is the cable, and does it tangle?

1.2 meters — pocket-to-ear with slack to spare — in tangle-free, high-elastic TPE cabling. No cable is tangle-proof, but the smooth jacket resists the worst knots; loosely coiling it instead of cramming it in a pocket helps most.

8. What’s the difference between the Type-C and Lightning versions?

Only the plug: USB-C for modern Android phones, iPhone 15/16, tablets and laptops; Lightning for iPhone 14 and earlier. Drivers, cable length, remote, and mic are the same family. Buy strictly by your device’s port — the wrong plug won’t fit.

9. Can I use it for gaming or video calls?

Yes — and wired is arguably better here than budget wireless: effectively zero latency for game audio and video sync, plus a mic that won’t cut out. For mobile gaming on a USB-C phone, the M116 Type-C is a sensible cheap pick.

10. Is there a warranty?

Yes — this product carries a 7-day warranty, the period listed on this product’s page. The store handles warranty claims with your order number (hotline 09638054751, care@gadgetsuperb.com, or Messenger).

11. How does delivery and cash on delivery work?

Every order is cash on delivery: you pay the delivery person in cash when the parcel arrives, and the store never asks for advance payment. Delivery charges and timelines follow the store’s Delivery & Returns page — inside Dhaka is faster and cheaper than outside Dhaka. Where the courier allows it, you may open the parcel and check the product before you pay.

12. Is the Hoco M116 Type-C in stock right now?

Stock changes as orders come in, so the live product page is the authority — it shows the current stock status and the current price. This page never hard-codes either, because both can change between your visit and your order. If the page shows it available, you can order with cash on delivery.
