We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack. https://bsky.app/profile/daisyfm.bsky.social/post/3l3mfjc6sn62k

Modern ANC is impressive.

When I'm on my bike I actually have less wind noise with my earbuds in than with my bare ears, which was a pretty odd feeling at first.

I also have a pair of over-ears, Sony XM5s, which have even better ANC. Used those while vacuuming and didn't hear the motor of the vacuum cleaner. I heard its wheels, though. Freaky.

Of course all of this is tied to the usual Bluetooth headphone drawbacks so YMMV.
