But of course we all know that the big manufacturers don’t do this not because they can’t but because they don’t want to. Planned obsolescence is still very much the name of the game, despite all the bullshit they spout about sustainability.

I’d rather they just give me a headphone jack tbh
I’m right there with ya. I know many people prefer wireless earbuds, but I like ripping cables out of my ears at random. Makes me feel alive.
Yes! I had totally forgotten about the instant pang of shock and anger I would feel when that happened.
Am I the only one that can’t stand the few hundred millisecond delay of Bluetooth audio?
Not at all! It drives me nuts. I’ve tried watching movies with Bluetooth headphones on, so as not to bug my wife at night, and it just feels off. Almost like watching old subtitled movies. I checked it out and my headphones have a ~250ms response time. My car’s system literally has a nearly two second delay and I can’t take it.
holy shit is that what that is??? it’s fucking awful i thought that video playback was somehow really intensive on my phone is fucky weird ways that were random and annoying.
It seems to be worse with multiple devices in use. I tried going Bluetooth only on my work laptop, and it just couldn’t handle my keyboard, mouse, and headphones (headphones would be laggy and sometimes skip/get static).
So for my work computer, I use wired headphones and Bluetooth everything else (I like typing with my keyboard on my lap sometimes).
I have come to love my bluetooth earbuds… but darn when im in the car i just wanna plug my phone in some times.
Mine just auto connects and I’m playing with Bluetooth
Yea, a portion of my problem is the bad implementation of Bluetooth in my 2013 Subaru Impreza.
It just wouldn’t support Bluetooth reconnects.
But in the end, if a friend is in the car nothing is quicker and easier than just plugging them in.
My vehicle is from 2000 and I installed an after market Sony in it in 2010. Been using it ever since. But this was back when the system wasn’t so uniquely integrated into vehicles. It’s not really even an option in many these days.
Yea, mine has a swappable front end, but just downs seem worth it.
Ended up getting a Bluetooth adapter from Ali which works well.
fuck wireless headphones! I don’t want to remember charging another god damn thing to start with.
