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

I don't think I've ever used the headphone jack on the phone I currently have. I do still use wired phones at my computer though.

And they were always tangled, and they got yanked out of your ears, and they were never in your pocket.

I still have a newish mid range phone with it, it runs most newer games, Zenless Zone Zero is the only that doesn't work, you just have to get comfortable with not owning Apple or Samsung.

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

Yes, but they would break because the cable frayed, and you would randomly get yanked when they got caught in something. Also, they were hellish to detangle.

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.

Trying to replace my Sony Extra Bass wireless and all they sell now are Ear Buds with no wired connection. I'm steps away from buying a giant headphone (big ear muffs) and walking around in the streets with it, I've had it.
