I'm always amazed that more people aren't bothered by having to constantly charge wireless headphones. Wired ones never run out of battery.

- speedgoose 5y agoThey charge quickly and the battery lasts a while.
- redisman 5y agoApples design genius really shows here. The container that you’d immediately lose the buds without charges them
- monocasa 5y agoI got a free pair of samsung buds woth the same idea. I just forget to charge the case too.
- brewdad 5y agoThis is my biggest pet-peeve. I bought a pair of bluetooth headphones that sound pretty good for their price (Cowin for about $50). They offer a corded option, so I can use them when a plug is needed, like watching a movie on a plane. BUT they will not work at all, even in corded mode, unless they are charged. If I forgot to charge them, I'm stuck with nothing and they are too bulky to deal with that. So now they get used at home and I travel with cheap earbuds.
- Gigachad 5y agoI charge mine about once a week. I have a cable sitting on the desk I work at and I’ll notice when the case is almost flat as I open it which prompts me to plug it in.
- jillesvangurp 5y agoI plug them in before I go to bed. They are fully charged in the morning and last me the whole day. I've never run it down to zero. My phone also charges at night. Same thing. I have a high end over ear pair for when I'm working. It blocks out the noise and the neighbors. It's on my head pretty much all the time when I'm at home. 16 hours is not unusual. Having the freedom of movement is very nice. For outdoors, I have a cheap set of bluetooth earphones (25 euros). Not the greatest quality but plenty OK for listening podcasts. Surprisingly comfortable and they have a soft plastic handle that wraps around my ears to keep them in place. They supposedly last about 6 hours. And the case allows me to charge them 3 or 4 times or so. They only need to be plugged in once every two weeks or so.
