Will it drive 300-ohm headphones?

The maker rates it for 16 to 300 ohms, so high-impedance headphones are within its stated range. Very demanding models may still want more power than a pocket amp gives.

Does it work with a phone?

Yes. It takes the headphone output of a phone, MP3 player or similar device and amplifies it. You connect with a short cable and control volume on the amp.

No. It is an analog amplifier only, so your phone or player still does the digital-to-analog conversion.

It has a built-in rechargeable battery, so you charge it rather than swapping batteries. The maker does not publish a runtime figure.

What is the gain switch for?

It has two gain stages. Use the lower one with loud sources and the higher one with quiet phones or hard-to-drive headphones.

It is described as a one-channel amplifier. That means it is not a true two-channel stereo amp, so check this if stereo separation matters to you.

Our take on the Dazone 16-300Ω Mini HIFI 1-Channel Headphone Amplifier

The Dazone Mini HIFI is a single-channel portable headphone amplifier in a matte aluminum body. It drives headphones from 16 to 300 ohms, has a two-stage gain switch, and runs on a rechargeable battery. It suits people whose phone or player is too quiet or thin for their headphones. Against rivals it is basic: one channel, no tone controls, no DAC, and no Bluetooth, so it competes on portability and gain rather than features.
