Yeah, there's something comforting about a physical connection I can inspect for defects or just unplug, then plug back in if audio isn't working right. Even when I used AirPods/Pro for a while, I never really trusted the headphones. Sometimes I would take them out of the case and they just didn't connect to my phone. Sometimes they didn't seat quite right in the case and didn't charge overnight, and would be totally dead. Sometimes they would connect, play the sound, show up as the audio output on my phone... then refuse to actually play any audio.
I understand that wireless is a nice convenience for a lot of people. But BT makes wireless such a nightmare I just don't think it's worth it. Incredible that nobody has come up with a competing standard.
- falcolas 5y agoLogitech has had a competing standard for years (I have decade-old wireless G series headphones which work flawlessly). I'm not sure why their low-latency/high quality system hasn't been more broadly adopted. Probably requires too much power.
- dont__panic 5y agoIs it the same tech their wireless mice use, or some variation? I've had really great experiences with that on my MX Master 2.
