I don't know if I agree.
People who moved to bluetooth got arguably worse sound quality.
For wired headphones, there were very few lightning headphones and they mostly sucked.
Now with usb-c you can get a broader range of headphones (because other phones have gone with usb-c).
either kind needs a dac inside the dongle, or the shell of the headphone, or have a bulky external dac.
3.5mm is still king for decent wired headphones/earbuds.

They're even considered trendy/fashionable now. https://www.cnn.com/world/wired-headphones-comeback-spc https://www.cnn.com/world/wired-headphones-comeback-spc https://mashable.com/article/wired-headphones-instagram-account-tiktok https://mashable.com/article/wired-headphones-instagram-acco...
- Shorel 4mo agoHonestly that "most people" seems to be more marketing driven than real opinion. When you simply can't purchase one thing, then you move to the next thing. I have several wired and wireless headphones, all for different uses, and the existence of wireless headphones don't make the wired ones less useful for their particular strenghts.
