    I absolutely tear through headphones. When they’re wired, the wire breaks where it meets the earpiece. When they’re wireless, the battery last like two hours. The USB port on my phone is long dead, and they don’t sell phones with the old headphone jack that didn’t break.

    But I still refuse to be that guy playing music on the bus.

      Buy some on-ears or (better yet) over-ears, still rocking my Sony WH-CH700N for almost 6 years. Can’t find a successor for them, CH710N and CH720N for unknown reasons got rid of aptX ;_;

      You need to buy a pair of good ones. Not hyped, not endorsed by whatever weird rap singer, but good ones.
      I bought a pair of good BT headphones 10 years ago, and they still going great. 10 years ago the battery lasted 20 hours, now it’s around 12 or so, which is still more than enough.

          I don’t know the exact model unfortunately, It’s Sennheiser and they’re all weird. The old one can’t connect to their new configuration software so I can’t check.
          I also have their newer version, Momentum 3, and can very much recommend that one, all the same great quality, but also Bluetooth 5.0
