On a recent post, there were a lot of comments, which said that they were missing the headphones on newer mobile devices.

How many actually use the headphone jack?

I ask, because I have one on my phone, since I really wanted one, but I rarely use it. Like Tops 1/Month.

My new phone doesn't have a headphone jack. Anyways I currently use my old phone daily because I hate how blue tooth audio is always slightly delayed. Watching videos is such a pain in the ass. Also it's next to impossible to find non earbud Bluetooth headphones making my corded headset a must for listening to anything for extended periods of time. Especially when traveling iny home state where earbuds hold air pressure.

I'm using the Bose QC line. It's fine for normal use, if a little pricey. There's obviously still the bluetooth delay though.

Holy $329. I recall my corded headset was $20 I believe and it's been quite comfortable and nice. So man with that price tag I'd friggin hope they'd do something about the Bluetooth delay. Man blue tooth is pricey.

Yeah there's a reason I linked the refurbished ones. There are cheaper ones though, these are noise cancelling which is a thing I desperately need.
