And there's the issue, the 3.5mm works with something I can buy for a couple of dollars in the supermarket and it just works. A good bluetooth headset costs an order of magnitude or two more and I can't find out if it's good until I take it home and open the packaging.
Even streaming from my phone to my PC is something I've found to be incredibly laggy.
- cstrat 9y agoTrue - but the similar issues people complain about with BT audio are going to be present with $5 cabled headphones... crackly audio, dodgy cables might cut in/out with movement etc...
- andrei_says_ 9y agoWhat about $145 cabled headphones? Complexity has its price — it’s hard to get right and corner cases continue creeping in with wider use. If there’s a popular example of over engineering, the replacement of a dirt cheap 3 foot cable that works perfectly 100% of the time, with zero lag and zero signal loss, with an expensive, battery powered wireless signal solution which lags, cuts out, creates security issues and dies after a few hours of use must be it.
