We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k

The ease of pairing Bluetooth headphones lately is pretty nice as well as not having to run a wire up my shirt to avoid snagging.

I do look back kind of fondly on physically plugging in my headphones and just having it work.

for some reason Bluetooth headphones NEVER connect properly for me. I have to delete them and re-add them. Ended up buying $25 IEMs that are wired and they sounded better than my $200 name brand wireless ones lol

In my experience. Once you pass $100 Bluetooth rarbuds it drifts onto diminishing returns territory. Once the Active Noise Canceling feature started to get passed down to sub $100 earbuds then the more premium ones started to look less and less appealing unless you hop on a good sale.

The IEM selection has been getting pretty good lately as well.

What phone do you have? My friend has a Sony Experia phone and despite Sony making boat loads of bluetooth headsets, the bluetooth in his phone is almost unusable.

On my iPhone and my Pixel things just work™

Fucking Sony, they're mad for proprietary shit in the name of protecting the company and completely fuck over the paying user in the process

Pixel 8, don't know why things don't work. I think it might be the headphones (pixel buds pro) Also might be that i have a lot of 'noise' around me (forgot the correct term) as I use them at school (~1,500 kids) but I don't know how to test the 'noise'.
