    I mean, how many people still use wired earbuds? I’d be surprised if it is 5% of users

      I would still us wired earbuds if my phone still had a headphone jack… It hard to find a good phone that still has a jack and this sucks

      I have three pairs of wired earphones (plus more regular headphones) and a portable DAC amp. I know what you mean though, Bluetooth headphones really are the norm these days. The tech in them also make them hard to repair.

      I do, however the headphone jack on my last phone was so bad I ended up just using the dongle anyway to get decent audio.
