Wireless earbuds and headphones certainly have some conveniences, but there’s so much to be said for a great pair of wired earbuds. Wired earbuds have a lower level of compression for better-sounding music and a built-in microphone for calls and voice commands. They also don’t need to be charged, are immune to annoying pairing issues, and are far easier to keep track of (plus, you won’t run the risk of losing just one earbud). On the whole, wired earbuds are more cost-effective than their wireless counterparts, and the perk of never needing to charge them means you won’t be stranded without your music, audiobooks, and podcasts on a long flight, camping trip, or commute. Bonus—you’ll never need to do the “stop and search” of shame if an earbud pops out during a jog or a frenzied morning (because, let’s face it, it always ends up in a place you really shouldn’t reach into).
