Most of my friends are using bluetooth headphones nowadays.



I've tried a number of bluetooth headphones, none of them have had the sound quality of wired. Songs would skip, quality was not great. Are there bluetooth headphones that don't skip nowadays?


I have Bose Wireless headphones and Beats Wireless, they both work great and I dont hear any difference in quality.


Yes. I am extremely happy with the beats solo 2 wireless. No surprise, that they are working well with an iPhone. As they support AAC over bluetooth, they offer quality audio - bluetooth headphones which don't do indeed sound bad on IOS devices.


I've had these for a while and they're very nice: https://usa.denon.com/us/product/portableaudio/noisecancelin...


If either end of the connection is implemented crappily, then the quality will suffer.


Yeah, Bose QuietComfort 35.


My bluetooth headphones (sennheiser urbanite XL) skipped on an android phone (LG G4) but work great on an iphone.


Oh, okay. Folks, most of usaphp's friends are buying bluetooth headphones. We can all stop worrying and complaining about this—disregard the large portion of the population that isn't or doesn't have them.

Same was told about cd-roms, usb type c and lightning port not far ago.

Thats why they provide you with a adapter and a set of lightning headphones for free with a new phone.
