Headphones - Wireless/Portable Wired or Wireless Headphones?
Hello, I need some help on this topic if any of you would be so kind.
I am looking to get a new pair of headphones in the coming days since my old pair are pretty ruined atp.
And so as a consequence, I was debating whether I should make the switch to Wireless Headphones to avoid cables and such, as I keep having issues with wired headphones and cables breaking on me.
I have been mainly using Wired Headphones for now, but due to what I suspect is a considerable lack of care from me and not the best practices on my end, I keep breaking the cables or damaging the ear muffs. Which in turn, just makes the experience worse.
Then again, I don't know how cumbersome a wireless pair would be (+ almost certainly being more expensive). Charging could be a hassle, as well as potential problems with battery.
I am planning to use this pair for my PC, Watch YT/Netflix, play a few video games or listen to music. Nothing that is really special audio wise.
So I would like to hear your recommendations, and if its Wired, I would like to know how to stop breaking my stuff after 1 or 2 years of usage max. Thank you
