Earbuds (reddthat.com)

We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k

Since I don't listen to music and thus sound quality is not important to me, I prefer wireless buds while working and at gym, but while at home on my computer I use wired over-ear headphones.

Nevertheless I refuse to buy a device without a headphone jack out of principle. If everyone who complained about Apple removing it would've stuck to their guns and refused to buy such device, there's a chance they, or atleast the competition would've decided to not follow along. Instead, consumers just went along with it showing the manufacturers that it's okay to charge more money for less features, and here we are. Not me though. My next phone will have a headphone jack as well.
