The Moto G6 has a 3.5 mm headphone jack and USB-C charging/data port, plus Bluetooth 4.2 LE with aptX. Conventional 3.5 mm headphones plug in directly, and Bluetooth models are a simple wireless route. A USB-C audio product is not automatically a Moto G6 headphone: its cable shape does not establish digital-audio or adapter compatibility. This guide therefore distinguishes direct-jack and Bluetooth choices rather than promising USB-C support.

Buying tips
- For guaranteed wired audio, choose headphones with a 3.5 mm plug and connect directly to the Moto G6 headset jack.
- The Moto G6 supports Bluetooth 4.2 LE with aptX, but Bluetooth headphone features vary; test calls, volume controls, and audio after pairing.
- Do not buy a USB-C headphone or passive 3.5 mm adapter solely because the phone has USB-C; obtain explicit compatibility information first.
