I hate cabled headphones on a portable device
Physically tethering to something designed to be slipped into a pocket, put in case, set down on the table while I walk around, etc is stupid
Physically tethering to a stationary object (that you can't really use if you walk away form it) makes sense in some cases
- aidenn0 3y agoI like headphones primarily on devices that go in my pocket because they move with me. When I use headphones at a non-portable device I'm likely to damage them by walking away with them on. I use a BT headset at my PC for this reason; I can get up and pace &c. without worrying. Quick tip if you are using wired headphones while doing chores: run the cable under your shirt; that should leave little-to-no exposed cable to snag on things.

- trey-jones 3y agoI am also a get-up-and-pacer, and agree with your reasoning completely.
- warrenm 3y agoI pace, too .. but not if I'm using a desktop - only when on the phone (and occasionally) with a laptop
