Mine are wearing out. I can hardly hear the right one anymore. I've had them for years.

I got some bluetooth ones but they're too hard to use so I still use the wired ones that are wearing out.

The best thing about true wireless (untethered) earbuds is how they all just fall out.

mine have never fallen out. this is why they come with different sizes... you know, just like wired earbuds which fall out too if theyre the wrong size.

Well I tried connecting them to my PC but my bluetooth dongle doesn't work. Perhaps defective or perhaps I didn't set it up right? Dunno.

I tried connecting them to my PS3 but it only does voice and not all audio like I wanted, and I couldn't find the relevant option, if it even exists.

I just plug my wired ones into the headphone jack on the tower/monitor and it works.

I still use the ones that just sit in your ear rather than being jammed into your ear canal. I'll never understand why those took off but now I have to go to the second page of Amazon just to find the ones I want.

with wireless earbuds you can pretend to have a conversation while you're actually listening to music, or vice versa.

This. If I tried using wireless earbuds, I'd probably replace them because I lost them more often than I replace wired ones because they don't work as well anymore. That on top of them being generally more expensive means I'm sticking with wired ones.

I would've just kept losing them. I've been through so many phones, wallets, debit cards, etc. because I'd get drunk and lose shit.

love my bluetooth headphones, it's soooo nice being able to walk away from my tablet and not have to carry it with me everywhere or if I want to like clean or cook or something I don't have to use the precision of a surgeon to make sure I don't drop it or yank the wire and drop the thing. Plus, it has an option to connect a cord if I want to for whatever reason

I was a wireless earbud naysayer for the longest time...until I got myself a good set (Galaxy Buds). Now I'm a convert and swear by them not just for their quality, but the convenience of being able to move around freely without worrying about wires.

I reckon some of y'all are just hating yet have never even tried them.
