Be broke, brehs

Y’all really sound retarded when y’all say this…

A pair of Bluetooth headphones go from $5-200. There are many androids more expensive than iPhones and even the low tier ones do so much more than an iPhone (I’m on an iPhone typing this with an 8 year old Android next to me running auto checkout bots). Please, try to understand technology before throwing around the word “broke”.

What you should be saying is “be technologically illiterate, brehs”…

And people are not understanding from a design standpoint, the 3.5 jack didn't make sense anymore.

Neither is the home button that taptic engine was tied to.

What home button now? It all comes together and makes sense.

I go on the treadmill with just an Apple Watch and some Jabra headphones. It's real convenience. Even given the headphone jack back I'd drill be wireless. I was wireless before they removed it. Lastly USB or Lighting to 3.5mm exist for those that want it. Hell I used to just leave the adapter on the end of my cable when I used it.

You complain about perceived convenience if Bluetooth yet don't acknowledge adapters get you right back to the same place things were at.

I use airpods and have never missed wired headphones

The apple ones are too steep for my broke ass... but I does have some Beats By Bruce Leeroy joints from amazon that have ambient noise/cancellation function. For 40 bucks, bestest investment i've ever made.


As far as 3.5 mm gang is concerned...


I'm the only one in the gym that uses wired headphones (if they made ipod nano's with Bluetoof, that'd be different).

people missing the point

having the luxury of both is true luxury... I have Iphone and wireless but its dumb to just have 1 option
when I got other headphones I could be using and switching out

 

[Ukbrotha]

I'm more pissed about the lack of a charging brick than headphone jack. Although the lack of headphone jack is still annoying.

How do you easily watch a VCR tape? We just had a bunch folks over last week and they wanted to watch our wedding dvd. I had to rig something up just to do that.

Get a VCR breh.... you can get them all day for 50 -100 bucks online. Not sure you are rigging things... that stuff is still available and cheap. A quick scan on Ebay or other places breh.
