Same. I’ve used the 3.5mm port for my truck daily for the past 10 years. Don’t need it as much now that I got a new truck, but I still use it when I ride my motorcycle. Bluetooth earbuds just don’t fit under my helmet.
Even before i’d upgraded to a phone without a 3.5 i’d switched to bluetooth, it’s just better.
I was a wired headphone murderer before, the left speaker would always go out after a few weeks, no matter how much i’d paid for them they just died.
I’ve been using a $7 pair of wireless for the last year without a single issue (i did have the samsung ones before, but i lost one… and learned my lesson on that).
It’s not better, it’s more convenient. Bluetooth earbuds are basically not repairable and they’re more expensive than their wired counterparts if you want something decent. The call quality is also worse due to bluetooth’s limitations.
Both types of headphones have their pros and cons and both can coexist. Don’t be dumb, don’t defend companies taking away options for no good reason other than planned obsolesence.
still using the 3.5mm on my S8 every damn day
