I have to admit, I also almost never use wired headphones nowadays. When the trend of removing the jack from phones picked up pace, I absolutely hated the idea of a lack of options. But I have to admit, the convenience of no wires, outclassed the nuisance of charging my bluetooth headphones once a week, eventually. Still out of principle, I don't buy headphones from the phone brand im currently using. There are too many good third party brands out there to consider first.
I used it in my car on the daily until it was removed from the phone. Then i went, in quite frustrating fashion, through a series of cheap aux/jack bluetooth dongles to maintain handsfree and music in the car.
Finally the radio in my truck started going out. So i replaced it with a wireless carplay/android auto model. And it IS nice.
But there are still times i would prefer a wired set of headphones. I still use them on my laptop from time to time. But will use airpods as well. One of the issues i have with my airpods is that often 1 side will be signifigantly louder than the other.
