Not much to add. Saw it in another technology forum and thought it also belonged here for the solarpunks

Have you used any lately? I have several types of Bluetooth headphones and they’re chugging along great, sounding good and connected well all day. Maybe the tech and connections have gotten better.

Yes there are still problems. I own a pair and they work fine a lot. But when they bug out its annoying af. And trust me they do not sound as good as a wired headset. They sound "good enough" not great. Bluetooth is a protocol that was never intended for what we are using it for. To the point that apple designed a specific chip to work with their airpods because Bluetooth is straight up lacking.

Also i get this question every time i make a comment about headphones. Great if they work for you. They have have problems and your personal experience doesn't negate that.

Also there is not a single Bluetooth headset out there that will ever last longer than wired headphones. Cause batteries degrade and these batteries arent replaceable.
