I have a Motorola G phone and have been looking around for headphones. None of the sales people seem to be very clued up on the fact that some phones have a 3 section plug, and some a 4 section plug.
I am assuming that there is (1) common, (2) L channel and (3) R channel. The (4th) section I assume is for the radio antenna (assuming no mic) or is it a mic? The packagings are very vague with the plug hidden inside. Can some technical person please clarify this, and will a iphone compatible head set work on a Android?
