I have some Fiio FH3 IEMs that I use with a Lightning to 3.5mm dongle fairly often. I also have some Airpods that are much more convenient to carry around and use but I do like my wired IEMs for when I want a more focused music listening and am not going to be moving around as much.

I have never once used the audio jack on a phone, Bluetooth is just much more convenient for me and has never caused me any issues.

If I had one, I would use it for somewhere between 2:00 to 8 hours per week. Considering getting the next ZenFone largely because it has one.

Every day, I have an app that connects the audio of my pc to my phone through wifi and using bluetooth would just make the whole setup unusable for calls + wifi has better range and audio quality than bluetooth. The whole setup is PC->Ethernet->Router->wifi->Phone for ~30 ms of latency and the app is soundwire.

I use lightning cord headphones because using my hearing aids as Bluetooth all the time drains them and there are connectivity issues over random shit.

That said, yeah, it’s a minor annoyance that I don’t have an aux jack, and the waterproofing is more valuable to me

Incidentally using my hearing aids as headphones has started causing me problems because they autoconnect to Bluetooth and my upstairs neighbors have just gotten Bluetooth speakers. I need to find a way to make them stop connecting to those devices for my sanity

Routinely with IEMs or over ear headphones as my Sony has a good DAC. If I am having a serious music listening session, I'll use a USB C dongle DAC amp.

Two of my headphones are wired.

They're both usb-c.

This isn't a wired/wireless issue. You can not have a 3.5mm audio jack on your phone and still use wired headphones without an adapter because usb-c headphones exist.

You can talk about quality differences and such, but that isn't the same as wired vs wireless being the only two options.

Only when my wireless earbuds batterie dies

If I still had one I would use it every day. I now use Bluetooth bone conducting headphones so I can hear other things while I listen to The Majority Report while I work.

ever since I got a new phone with a headphone jack, been wanting to get a usb c to headphone jack adaptor, still dont have any headphones I can use with my phone

Most of the time I use Bluetooth headphones, but when I'm in the mood to listen to some good quality music, I switch to wired headphones... Probably a few times per month and only at home.

I use it every day so for me is still a big must have. I also use it for 8 hours straight at work

Everyday

I refused to get a phone without one for quite a long while and finally caved. I haven't used wired headphones in years but I hate that there isn't the option anymore as a default.

Never. Bluetooth AirPods 100% of the time.

Well I do almost daily

I have an old phone I still use for media because it has the headphone jack, it's also great to watch stuff in a room with other people in it like when a partner is watching TV or something. I bought the FairPhone 4 because I heard they (the company) made phones with it and failed my due diligence and was promptly disappointed with the lack of jack. Still my biggest gripe with this phone and still a feature I love and want back.

You can even munch on bugles and still hear your video! Its amazing!

I’ve never liked or wanted a wire connecting me to my phone. It’s irritating and is a hugely negative stim for me, akin to nails on a chalkboard.

Fwiw there are some pretty solid portable Bluetooth dacs so you don't have to have your phone port plugged all the time.

I use wired headphones in bed, listening to podcast and whatnot. Easier to just yank out and throw away when falling asleep. I use lightning headphones right now..

Because sometimes I just want simplicity. If I’m sitting in a room with my laptop, iPad and two phones it’s a freaking crap shoot which one my BT headphones are going to connect to.

But alas, none of my phones have a jack anymore so I use a dongle.

I dont

Daily until I had to get a new phone that didn't have one.

After that I got an adapter so I could continue using the various 3.5mm headphones thar I already own

I bought nice fancy wireless earbuds once, and lost one of them like 2 weeks in when I fell to river with bicycle. Maybe it's a 1 in a million case, but showed a good reason to not have wireless buds
