That is bullshit. I own a pair of wireless headphones with great sound, and that technology has been available literally for decades. I remember my grandfather having wireless headphones in the 80ies.
But you’re talking of earbuds, I suppose. Then let’s talk about the other stigma of wireless earbuds, producing toxic landfill: You have to throw it away after a year because you can’t exchange the batteries when their capacity inevitably diminishes.
With a pair of wireless cans, you can at least shop around to find some where there’s actually a replacement battery available. Older ones ran on AA batteries, so one could use simple rechargeables.
I understand you need to sell stuff, but at least sell sustainable stuff, not that crap with planned obsolescence built in.
BT 4.1 at the end of 2019?
Also, this model goes for like 25$ on AliExpress … and I have yet to see a good audio review on those.
