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

As someone who loves and needs wired headphones but loves the convenience of BT - The solution is a Bluetooth dongle.

Plug your amazing headphones into the dongle
Keep the dongle in your pocket
Cable won't get caught as much
Cable won't suffer as much wear
Phone is much easier to handle
If the headphone jack gets glitchy and bad it's cheaper to replace a dongle than a phone

Downside: Many (most?) BT dongles have shitty audio quality so you need to find a good one.

A Bluetooth dongle still requires batteries that would otherwise not be needed.

You are just moving the problem.

You can get a USB-C to Aux adapter for your phone. It's my way of still doing this.

All you need is a usb-c to 3.5mm adapter, folks.

Apple sells one for just $9 that has a top notch DAC, in case that's a selling point for you audiophiles.
