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
I really can't stand people that make this argument, I felt the same way at first, but then I actually started using Bluetooth headphones and they are frankly just better, in almost every way.
And if you really want wired headphones still, you can just buy an inline adapter for like £2.
Exactly. Get the adapter and don't lose it. Now, if companies made it impossible to wire in audio, well that would be totally insane.
Literally every single phone I've had where I use a USB C headphone adapter, the audio function just stops working eventually. Charging is fine, but audio just quits. I don't even use the port to charge this phone, I use a pad, but the audio has stopped working through USB. It's not a replacement.
