yeah sure not having a wire is nice, but two generations of earbuds from my phones own manufacturer and both pairs i get regularly dogshit audio quality, and half the time one of the buds doesn’t even work or produces barely any audio. There is no way to remedy this even after resetting the buds and the bluetooth connection. and you have to shell out 3x as much money for these things. also it’s yet another device whose charge you have to keep track of

    A con is that cable is simply more sturdy and less fickle.

    Maybe versus bad Bluetooth devices. But when you have two devices that are actually good I’ve had very little issues with Bluetooth. With my iPhone and AirPods I’ve had a single digit number of issues with it connecting.

    Meanwhile I’ve gone through an ungodly number of earbuds and audio cables in my life. Never again having to resolder the headphone jack on my phone is well worth it.
