It still lasts a lot longer than the headphones that i was using where the cable does not even last a month and breaks from plugging it in and out every few hours.

@thetombuck I should wear gloves and spend 30 minutes slowly unscrewing the headphones out of the phone sorry but the clock does not stop people always complain about me being too slow thing things so its not an option it has to be done quickly.

@saladv3028 I just bought cheap 25$ ones i tried buying a few more expensive 60$ ones but they broke fast too i used to buy even cheaper 10$ earbuds but those did not even last a week i had one break down when i opened the box i also got replacement cables for those that had replaceable cables but the cables where more expensive than i expected and they all broke down quick i guess i could risk buying a 200$ headphone but i don't have much trust in that being anymore robust the final straw was the headphone jack breaking on my phone and pc just from friction so i gave blue tooth a shot and it works very well and the headphones have great battery life i only have to charge them once every few weeks i actually forget to charge them because its so rare for it to run out of power when it happens i am unprepared the biggest downside is having to open the menu to connect to blue tooth that takes up a few seconds and that is unacceptable to certain people i know and its extra annoying on windows where the menus are slow and glitchy it even blue screened my laptop once so i prefer to use wired headphones or speakers on pc and blue tooth on my phone.

What if they made ports that where actually robust instead of junk that breaks when you look at it the wrong way.

My headphone jacks did break eventually the actual headphone did not even last a month so yea i have up blue tooth last longer but it can also be annoying having to open a menu to connect it and my desktop pc does not even have build in blue tooth and my laptop bluescreens when i tried to use it so its all bad.

Yea but with my old headphones it was always the headphone in that broke quickly i was lucky if it lasted for more than a few months so now i have my blue tooth headphones and they still work after 1 year the longest of any headphone i owned there are some downsides like when the battery runs out and the sound quality is good but at least it actually works but the biggest issue with blue tooth is that my desktop pc had no build in blue tooth and my laptop sometimes bluescreens when i try to use blue tooth so its great on my phone but i still need to use wires on my pc's i have a pair of headphone on my pc and i never un plug it so it still works but when i do unplug it i have to mess with it for a while when i plug it back in because its already degrading and it only a matter of time before that one breaks before i had my blue tooth head phones i would often pug it in and out and that caused it to break in a short time and even the jack on my phone and pc was breaking down so i could not have any audio at all.

Its like they are trying to make people not wanting to care about the environment

Well to be fair i can't find a lot of headphones that use 2.5mm

3 years lol my non wireless headphone did not even last one month my current Bluetooth headphones are over 1 maybe 2 years old and still works 3 years of life would be a total quantum leap compared to the crap i had to deal with before.
