I have had the wire catch on something and rip out of my ears. Does that count as a dropped signal? That has happened to me more than AirPods dropping signal. And besides, is there anything you are listening to that is absolutely mission critical that a very occasional few second signal drop is that disconcerting? AirPods are great far more often than not.
- yoz-y 7y agoI second this. A wire tangled into something when exiting the bus has happened to me more often that I care to admit.
- SethMurphy 7y agoI appreciate good sound and for this I have always preferred wired, however I have been wireless for a couple years now for one simple reason, as an insurance policy for my phone. As a desk worker I simply got up tethered and dragged my phone with me too many times. It's up to the individual to decide if Bluetooth hiccups (and a need to charge) are worth it in their case. I found for using in the office wireless was the way to go. If I am bundles up in a jacket with a phone and wired headphones I don't have as many issues. Ironically the only headphones I ever broke because of dangling wires were an early pair of "wireless" buds with a neck lanyard for the battery wired to the buds.
