I was like you until all the phones basically removed the headphone jack. Then being the adamant boomer who refuses to use wireless earbutts I bought this.
never been happier about a cheap product that improves lives so much.
I had a G Power and it was such a piece of shit. Just badly laggy, apps froze all the time, generally pretty bad. It's a shame too, midrange Motos used to be great
I bemoan the loss of the headphone jack just because its removal seems pointless and abusive towards the consumer, but I do also believe that wireless earbuds and headphones are almost always superior to wired when you factor in the convenience factor. tbh I don't get why so many people insist on using wired earbuds.
I like em cause I hate to have to fricking charge everything. I have 4 other stupid things that need constant charging. I refuse to add anything else to the list.

: The quality doesn't matter because you're partially deaf.
That's about where I've landed. The 3.5mm jack is nice because it's a dead simple standard that can work on any device in a pinch, for that reason alone removing it was dumb if not outright sinister.
But wired earbuds fricking suck. I'm the biggest luddite I know but I'll vouch for bluetooth any day, especially if you do physical activities while listening. The one convenience wired has - no charging required - is never an issue, and the few issues wireless has - losing connection, lower quality - are pretty insignificant or rare enough it's not much of a bother. Meanwhile wired get tangled and snag on everything and just remembering that happening back in high school raises my cortisol levels a hair.
I used to think that, but years ago I dropped $70 on some JBL(?) wired earbuds that also wrapped around the ear and was somewhat open-ended, so I could heard enough around me while enjoying a good level of bass.
I'd ride my bike to the gym, so they were great for that scenario too.
Th Bluetooth earbuds also act as earplugs which blocks too much outside noise. I'm not all about blocking out random conversations with people, but I get it if you live in a city with "high sociable walls."

I have wireless earbuds but they are connected to my work laptop so I can sit wherever I want in my home (mostly watching tv) and not miss teams calls/chats. but I prefer wired when I am exercising or going for a jog/walk because I know they will not fall out of my ear
i just want the option to use both tbh i dont really like airpods they never sit right in my ears n i have to adjust them 20 tikes to feel right for 5 minutes
Now you have a massive dong hanging out to snag and break the charge hole. Give me standard headphone jack. It's not like there's no room in the massive Stragblets.
How does it hold up to dusty hands (like you'd know lololol) How about dropping it off a 3 story? Why do you need a seventy six geebee camera, you insta whore?

Yep. The fact not one phone manufacturer seems to want us to be able to use a phone comfortably with just one hand is insane.
My favorite is iPhone making their phones bigger and bigger, and then dropping the iPhone 13 mini that is still bigger than the original iPhone that came out almost 15 years ago.
In that order. Ive got one of the last galaxy models where you could still have an SD card which is a godsend, I really dont want to upgrade phones just because I dont want to lose half my music and pay hundreds more for the same amount of storage I have now
You save a tiny amount of space by putting it directly under the the screen. Also they would have to redesign the back too cause camera lenses go all the way through the phones now to max out image quality.
Basically the same with the memory card, but then no card helps them sell you some overpriced cloud subscription that runs at 100kb/s in 2024.
Google and Samsung just have their marketing departments blindly copying Apple at this point too. And this r-slur https://twitter.com/MatiasDuarte said users are too dumb to know where things are saved or some crap too.

I'm a Carpenter. Id rather keep spending $1.25 on a pair of dollar store headphones. I'd guess I get 2 weeks out of pair on average.
I've tried a few sets of cordless...they kill battery on a long day, and don't work so well when dropped into a bucket of thinset.
Don't forget my phone's are lucky to last a year.
