I always wanted to be the cool hipster with cabled headphones and getting mad about phones without audio jack.
Truth is, my cables always got tangled up, especially at work. It was getting really annoying. I bought some open ear headphones from aftershokz because i often listen to music wherever and i don't want to be isolated. These things absolutely fuck. Battery life is fantastic. Even if they are empty, i can throw them into the pocket charger for 15 minutes and they go for hours again. The sound is good. It's not full blown headphone quality, obviously. But they are so comfortable and you don't have to stick anything into your ears. I saw that bose has a similar product and i kinda wanna try them.
I understand it's a very subjective experience. And tbh, one thing that bothers me about cabled ones is the cable noise when moving. Or accidentally pulling off the headphones from my head, although that's not a common issue,but for sitting experience they're perfect. Aside from that, my music preference is very eclectic, so e.g. the level of bass really needs to adapt properly to the genre I'm listening to atm, so the boosted bass Bluetooth headphones just don't work for me. I've never experienced a Bluetooth pair that doesn't have too much bass.
Ya, bass is always the downside of these things, but i'm not super into that. Also i don't really like to listen to music very loud. I really don't like when i feel the cable brushing my arms or something. And i rip them out every time i stand up. It's so bad.
A huge plus for me is also that i can leave my phone somewhere and i can still listen to music.
Yeah the moving around thing is also a benefit to me too
There's a method to put headphones into your pocket without them tangling. Fold them in half always instead of coiling them up.
I learned 'cable macrame' from my networking mentor. I can wrap a cable so fast, and it's not gonna tangle.

I'm triggered for I think I'm in this comment. But I'm less 'cool hipster' and more 'cantankerous nerd'. But allllll the rest is true.
