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
fucking wireless headphones, they are a menace to society and if not to society, to my life
I would suggest looking at some IEMs if you want to stick with a wire. For phones that don't have a headphone jack, a USB C to TRS jack (tip ring sleeve / headphone jack) will suffice.
Personally I prefer a good quality BT/USB Dac amp to drive my IEMs as the quality is far superior to any phone headphone jack that isn't a LG V20 thru V60, or the Moondrop MIAD01 DAC phone. Few manufacturers provide good onboard sound. BT buds improve upon this a lot, but a real dac amp and set of IEMs or cans will show you so, so much more.
Honestly the best would be "behind the head" earphones. No tangle. And then add like a few extra grams to include a portable music player and a small battery. Plus usb-c to transfer and recharge. Or plus bluetooth. Best of all worlds.
But what I really want are big noise protection / noise cancelling headphones with an integrated mp3 + opus player plus bluetooth.
I rarely use earbuds but when I do, I always use wired ones. That's why when I am buying a new phone, first priority is head phone jack. My current earbuds are some 20€ Sony ones and they do the job when I have to listen something in public.
