Rarely. I do have a pair of Buds Live tho
I have an adapter that splits so I can charge my phone while I talk on a headset while working. Does that count?
No.
I stopped using wired headsets loooong before they started taking them off...my HP iPaq had Bluetooth and my iPod didn't--that's when I bought my first Bluetooth headset.
Nope. I was already switching away from wired headphones anyway because they're annoying to keep around.
I am once again telling you to use an adapter or external dac.
Not as someone who only uses bt headphones, but as someone who owns more sets of wired headphones than almost everyone itt.
Stop relying on a dac included as an afterthought. Stop relying on a port that was never designed for pocket use and routinely tears the end off your $300 senhausers.
Nope. AirPods.
I thought I did and was so against manufacturers removong them. Until I got Airpods. So much better. Perfect ear fit like no other. No cable mess. Instant auto connect between devices. I can ping them. And they’ve held up longer than any cable headphones as well, whose cables always break. And they get tangled. I’ve had the Airpods for three years now and they still hold battery for a full day use for me. Charging them fully takes like 15 minutes.
I’m sure there are similarly good headphones for other brands, this is just my own experience with Airpods.
In case I must have a cable for some reason I can plug in a tiny 3,5mm adapter through the charging port. So that’s not a problem either.
Also the phone has better water and dust resistance with one port less.
