When I got my iPhone without a headphone jack, I went out and bought a nice Bluetooth headset. I did use it a lot at the time, but just recently rediscovered it after a couple years lost. It turns out that I prefer speakers for audio/video and only use headphones for calls … for work I prefer wired headphones because they always work, whereas Bluetooth keeps begetting confused whether I am in the office or at home, but that’s not in mobile

I used it every day, when I had it. I would still use it every day if I had it. Sadly I don't have it anymore.

Routinely with IEMs or over ear headphones as my Sony has a good DAC. If I am having a serious music listening session, I'll use a USB C dongle DAC amp.

Two of my headphones are wired.

They're both usb-c.

This isn't a wired/wireless issue. You can not have a 3.5mm audio jack on your phone and still use wired headphones without an adapter because usb-c headphones exist.

You can talk about quality differences and such, but that isn't the same as wired vs wireless being the only two options.

If I still had one I would use it every day. I now use Bluetooth bone conducting headphones so I can hear other things while I listen to The Majority Report while I work.

Most of the time I use Bluetooth headphones, but when I'm in the mood to listen to some good quality music, I switch to wired headphones... Probably a few times per month and only at home.

Everyday

I use it every day so for me is still a big must have. I also use it for 8 hours straight at work

I use it every single day. My phone just died, I have a temporary phone with Jack,, but I know my next one won't have one and I'm afraid of that change.

I've tried using an adapter and the quality sucks.

I refused to get a phone without one for quite a long while and finally caved. I haven't used wired headphones in years but I hate that there isn't the option anymore as a default.

A few years ago I would have said every day, but I got a really good pair of Bluetooth Bose headphones that have wireless charging so I don't have to worry about anything anymore. After work they get put on a charging pad then in the morning I grab them and they're ready to go.

I use it every day on my way to work and most nights before bed.

ever since I got a new phone with a headphone jack, been wanting to get a usb c to headphone jack adaptor, still dont have any headphones I can use with my phone

I have never once used the audio jack on a phone, Bluetooth is just much more convenient for me and has never caused me any issues.

Sorry to derail but what do people think of air gap or air tube wired headphones? Do you think they are necessary?

Well I do almost daily

I use my earbuds most of the time for music and podcasts, but the wires ones are mainly for gaming because of latency.

I have a pair of hybrid headphones that are both bluetooth and support 3.5mm wired.

I use them wired on my PC and bluetooth everywhere else.

Always. Everything besides the cell tower connection happens wired. No Bluetooth or WiFi .

Is there a way to migrate yet?

I bought nice fancy wireless earbuds once, and lost one of them like 2 weeks in when I fell to river with bicycle. Maybe it's a 1 in a million case, but showed a good reason to not have wireless buds

I have a headphone jack and have never used it

I used to use mine pretty regularly for some wired IEM's and sometimes connecting it to my PC.

But a couple months ago, I put my phone in a bag of silica gel balls to absorb some water after it got wet.

Cannot recommend this to anyone else though... because those balls actually have roughly the same diameter as the headphone jack and one got completely stuck inside, making the port unusable. :(

I definitely used it when I had it on my previous phone. These days though… bluetooth headphones are good enough for me for calls, podcasts and YouTube. So I just use those.
