On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

      Has a “boomer” treated you wrong at some point your life or something? 😬

      Have you seen anyone in a music recording studio or a stage wearing Bluetooth headphones?

      My point is not that everybody needs headphones for studio sessions or gigs etc. My point is simply that Bluetooth is not just better as you seem to imply.

      Different technologies have different usecases, wired headphones won’t die for a very long time, and there are good reasons for it.

          Why do y’all have to write in such a condescending/rude way?

          My point was Bluetooth is not better in every way and I stand by that (you seem to too).

          Personally, I have 2 pairs of headphones 1 pair of in-ears and 1 pair of over-ears, I use my over-ears for everything except band practice and gigs (where I use in-ears). Buying more headphones just so I can use them with my phone seems ridiculous to me.

          I am happy that you find joy in wireless headphones, and I’ll stop talking now in fear of summoning that Candybar Jerk again.
