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

TBF most likely both would’ve been gone by then

I had both on me when I fell, but only lost one.

Anyways, accidents are a common when doing sports so it’s always a good chance to lose those small things. Clear win for wires there

When I use IEMs I use an Apple USB-C to 3.5.mm dongle for my Pixel. Weirdly good value ngl. Nowadays I do have a pair of Galaxy Buds 2 Pro as well. I use them more than wired headphones at this point. So while a headphone jack would still be nice, to me it’s not that necessary anymore.

I use wired headphones in bed, listening to podcast and whatnot. Easier to just yank out and throw away when falling asleep. I use lightning headphones right now…

Well I do almost daily

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.

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

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.

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.

I use it daily. On the bus, in the library, I can silence my phone by just plugging it in instead of using the volume buttons, I can use it on my PC which doesn’t have Bluetooth. I don’t have to deal with battery anxiety or weird sensors pausing the song cuz I was vibing my head with the music.

I admit, wireless seems very…user-friendly right now but it’s something that has little use for me. I would pick wired over wire anyday

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.

If I had one, I would use it for somewhere between 2:00 to 8 hours per week. Considering getting the next ZenFone largely because it has one.

The only thing I miss it for is plugging into the car. I’ve got Bluetooth adapters now though that work pretty well. In theory I might run into a situation where it would be nice to be able to plug into a speaker or someone else’s car or something, but BT is so common it doesn’t really come up.

What’s a headphone jack?

JK, I used to use mine a lot, when I had one. I was sad to see it go, but I’ve moved on. I can use the USB-C port just as easily, if I want to.
