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

If you think Bluetooth earphones won't also be in that pile once the batteries stop holding charge after 2 years, you're in for a world of dissapointing sex

My AirBudz are over five years old and still play for like five hours before I need to charge them… and I used them 40+ hours daily for all of those years.

How are your days 40+ hours long

We must know the secret of your 40+ hour days. Are you on Earth? What's the battery tech like on your planet? We could use some help.

My point wasn't wired vs wireless. It was disposable crap that breaks vs corporations not deliberately making crap the only thing most people can comfortably afford.

But they need to skimp on those few milligram ounces of solder per bud, so that they can make one extra low quality bud!

Or rather so they can make the same number of buds and double or more the profits for the amoral shareholder dividends.
