Hi Phil,
I can't speak to the quality of the mic on those earbuds, but there are
a number of splitter cables out there that will split the mic and
speaker signals form the TRRS jack on you earbud cable to the mic and
speaker connections on your KX3.
I use one I ordered from Amazon to do just that when using my ASUS
T100TA tablet for digital modes with my KX3. Sorry I don't currently
have a link, but there are a number of them out there with various
prices and quality.

When I operate portable with my KX3 I am often favoring my Apple iPhone
earbuds over other headsets. I have no measure of whether these are
better or worse then others (I also own CM500 but it is big and bulky)

100 percent CW so voice quality has not been an issue.
But...
If I wanted to switch to SSB for some reason I am thinking: "Is there a
way to use the mic that is integrated with these iPhone earbuds?".
In a perfect world where there is no resistance nor taxes, this would
work without any special plugs or jacks just like it works on my iPhone
but I don't expect that. Has anyone done this? Has anyone adapted this
mic for use on the KX3? I don't even know the mic technology (electret,
dynamic, etc.).
