Over the years I switched to wireless for most of my peripherals, then back to wired.
When I was switching to wireless, there would be pairing and connection problems. I assumed the technology would get better and I am just paying for being an early adopter. Unfortunately, the technology has never become much better. I changed a dozen mice, half a dozen keyboards, and probably two dozen headphones. Not to mention a lot of other types of peripherals.
Honestly, I have never found A SINGLE device that would work problem free.
I am tired of my mice or keyboard suddenly refusing to work while I am presenting. Or discovering another pair of headphones that the manufacturer (Hi Sony!) decided that it will be a good idea to interrupt me while listening to notify that the battery is low while there is still more than 50% of listening time available.
Or a huge number of other, unexplainable problems. Like my headphones drawing charging current but still being low on charge in the morning. Or my bluetooth headphones cutting out whenever I leave the range of my... wifi (Yes! I carry the phone in my pocket while leaving the house and they reliably stop working about 40m from home).
And I am not buying cheap devices, I am almost always buying new, flagship products for top brands.
Now my working environment is back to wired and is much lower on drama. Still not perfect, but at least I can have meetings without worrying about things breaking at random.
