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
I found ear buds just do not like the distance from my ears to the pocket my phone lives in (upper thigh, front pocket).
Headphones were a lot better, but broke in that one spot they always do (earpiece swivel bracket). >.>
idk a wireless pair offhand but my sony wired headphones (mdr-v6/mdr-7506) have a metal bracket at that exact spot, and are such common, long-running products that you can actually buy spare parts when they break. Something to think about! I’ve had the same problem with earbuds, the 3 ft from pocket to ear is too much somehow
I went out of my way to choose durable headphones for my current pair, but they only came in wired.
I wonder if earbuds are just designed for very short people or something
