As you can see, I have not been able to use the microphone to record my voice yet under /e/OS 0.19 on my FP3+. Still awaiting if it works for calls, but more optimistic there.
I cannot test the Voice Assistant functionality (needs a Google-certified OS, I guess), so I omitted that control (hold left earbud for 2 s) from the table.
As to ANC and Voicethrough, I really just confirm (not that easy to test by talking to yourself ) that the controls result in audibly different modes – and I assume that those work completely independently of the device the earbuds are connected to.
UPDATE 18:47:
Just using them to listen to FLAC tracks played through VLC … from my early 2009 desktop computer.
UPDATE 18 Nov:
Easily worked with a Win10 tablet as well (plus made me figure out the unmentioned volume control, see below).
