Earbuds
We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k

As someone who loves and needs wired headphones but loves the convenience of BT - The solution is a Bluetooth dongle.
- Plug your amazing headphones into the dongle
- Keep the dongle in your pocket
- Cable won't get caught as much
- Cable won't suffer as much wear
- Phone is much easier to handle
- If the headphone jack gets glitchy and bad it's cheaper to replace a dongle than a phone
Downside: Many (most?) BT dongles have shitty audio quality so you need to find a good one.
I thought about doing this a while back, but it is just bluetooth earbuds with extra steps and inconvenience, and can easily be more expensive too.
Well this is a solution for people who specifically don't want Bluetooth earbuds/headphones. If you don't mind buying those then you should of course buy those instead.
A Bluetooth dongle still requires batteries that would otherwise not be needed.
You are just moving the problem.
Absolutely. But I'd rather deal with charging the battery in the adapter than risking breaking my headphone cable or my phone. So for me the problem is worth moving.
