Wired versus Bluetooth earphones
cross-posted from: lemmy.world/post/47067241
I used to dislike the removal of the 🎧 jack in many Android 📱. For earphones, I preferred wired to Bluetooth. But many of my wired earphones broke. My Soundpeats trueshift2 lasted a few years before dying. My Soundcore a20i has seemed tough. both BluetoothSo I've preferred Bluetooth earphones for a few months now. Charging has been a hassle but the toughness has been so 👍.

During the COVID lockdown I was doing a lot of walking around the local woods with my infant daughter in a pushchair. I listened to music on my phone. I was using free conf-swag head phones.
So I bought myself new ones. Absolute top-of-the-line super-fancy Sony in-ear things with bass boost and all the trimmings.
They were about CzK 600, which equates to about £25.
I still use them. 6Y later they still sound amazing. By any objective measure they are better than any in-ear things: excellent isolation, superb sound (in as well through the integrated mic), complete cross-platform compatibility, *infinite* battery life -- no batteries! No pairing, no synching, no updates ever. Come with build-in anti-theft anti-loss device: a cable.
£25. What that is in dollarbucks I don't know as I avoid visiting fascist states that might imprison me. $35?
