    That “only” reason is my primary (but not only) reason. Having had too many headsets I had to replace because only one ear would work. Wasn’t worth the hassle to keep replacing em. In addition, I like a lot of the noise canceling and remote control features good wireless comes with. Not that you couldn’t get those from wired, but a lot of the good ones I’ve seen don’t have much controls.

    Yet another reason, my phone, which I chose for the screen size, unfortunately has no headphones jack.

    I do currently use wired headphones for my pc, both work and fun, but I started this after my wireless of about 5 years fell apart(plastic degraded, the electronics still work). While the audio quality is higher and my new desk mic is highly superior as well, I do miss being able to walk around my room or get a drink and still listen to conversations.

    Anyone who adamantly states such a position of yours is stuck in their own use cases and thinks everyone has the same needs and priorities. I’m not you, and you aren’t me, and we use our devices differently.
