    • They are expensive. You can get wired earphones for 2 euros that actually work and are reasonably durable. It’s not a great loss if they fall in a puddle or if I step on them.
    • They are a lot more failure prone. Half of those I tried didn’t work or only half worked, and those that did work didn’t last very long.
    • They have shitty range. I can use a 10 meters extension cord with wired earphones if I want to.
    • They require charging. And it’s a law of physics that everything that requires charging always run out at the most inconvenient time.
    • Also THEY ALWAYS GET LOST. Wireless earphones, mouse, controllers… it doesn’t matter, if it’s not attached with a cable they’ll just disappear.

      LOL, 10m extension cord. I mean you’ve already established that you don’t give a crap about sound quality with your first point but that’s just ridiculous. Not to mention the 10m cord that your dragging around the house.
