    I think I will never accept wireless earbuds

    You carry a small pill organizer box together with your phone, you are in constant fear of losing one of them, you have to charge them. Why adding this level of micro managing into your life?

    • I'm not an audiophile, so for me a €10 pair of cable sony earbuds is enoughdmay
    • yep. plus nothing like creating an aura of bluetooth radio waves around your brain.shapesalad
    • No audiophile uses airpods anyway. They sound like junk.monospaced
    • What does Bennn the audiophile use?drgs
    • I was kinda forced to use them after buying an iPhone 12. They broke 3 weeks ago and are now being fixed :/Chimp
    • Got a decent pair then ended up returning them after starting to read about allowing bluetooth waves such close access to your brain.microkorg
    • Fully with you and not because I'm too old.SimonFFM
    • I'm still cables / headphones, and cheap ones too.Wordsworth
    • they're great to use at the gym.PioneerDJ303
    • Bluetooth, yes. Earbuds, no. I have "bluetooth wired-earbuds" and I love them. I can hang them around my neck w/o fear of accidentally dropping outbezoar
    • I can get close to 8 hours on a full chargebezoar
    • Open Ear Headphones. Fuck Everyone Up.dibec

      Don't like noise cancelling unless I'm at home      pango
    • wait..... no.... they're called open back headphones.pango
    • I converted. I would catch the cord on the kitchen cabinets/work tables and the like. Headphone ripped out of ear...sometimes phone ripped out of pocket.misterhow
    • Great for the gym and running/hiking. That's really it.FNP14
    • I don't even bother with expensive corded in-ear headphones any more - they seem to last me about a year, no matter how good or bad they are. $$$$Nairn
    • They make phone calls so much more bearable for me. I can focus more on the call and plus hands free to pick my nose.stoplying
    • I'm very tempted because of phone yanking reasons mentioned aboveFax_Benson
    • I just have a pair for home. Nice being able top walk around, clean up, cook etc while the phone/laptop can stay put.inteliboy
    • Wired... I've got a ton of earbuds they gave away from all the phones we've bought. Jvc earbuds or a pair of good headphones if I get exquisite at some point...OBBTKN
    • headphones (in public) are bad for situational awareness.Brabo_Brabo
    • pango. thank you. I must’ve had a stroke. Open back is definitely correct.dibec
    • I'm old as fkc but i love wireless ear buds. Have wished these existed since day 1.desmo
    • Bobo. That's why you get open back headphone.pango
    • Even then, it's daft wearing them out and about (where I live)Brabo_Brabo
