    Seriously.
    I do like that it tells you, rather than just dying. But who the eff decided it was a great idea to have the low battery voice not only pause the music, but also repeat itself every 3 seconds???

    I’m so worked up I’m using italics multiple times over here!!

      So much this. I had a cheaper pair of Bluetooth headphones back in the day and when they got 10 percent or so they would loudly (regardless of volume set) proclaim

      “BATTERY LOW”

      Continue listening for maybe a minute

      “BATTERY LOW”

      I have maybe 5 minutes before I am home

      “BATTERY LOW”

      The battery will last till th

      “BATTERY LOW”

      TILL THEN NO PROBL

      “BATTERY LOW”

      Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrgrgrggggggggggg

      They treat it like a low altitude warning in a fighter jet airplane. “Pull up! Pull up! Pull up!”

    Wired headphones are the answer. Sound better, no batteries, no charging - ever -, excellent cross-device compatibility and a ton of other advantages I’ve written about elsewhere.

    If only companies wouldn’t remove the jack left, right and centre for mostly lousy excuses.

    This is basically my opinion: https://www.soundguys.com/was-ditching-the-headphone-jack-a-good-idea-13825/

      The convenience of not being wired to my device outweighs “better” sound.

      Wired doesn’t immediately make it sound better. Plenty of crap or just cheap wired ones.

      What is great is never getting up and have your ears ya led and and your phone sent flying because you forgot you set your phone on the table. Or worse, the cables got caught on the door knob.

    I just started watching Billions for the first time, and I’m doing so through my nice over the ear headphones. When he’s speaking in low tone, Paul Giamatti’s voice is ready for ASMR prime time.

    I ultimately didn’t like that show but I might rewatch the first few episodes just for that velvet voice. Who knew he was hiding honey underneath the bed of Rusty nails that is his yelling?

    Lakutis could just wirelessly charge them, though.

    Picard didn’t know what we was giving up in convenience.

      Not even a beep, AirPods have a pleasant little sound that goes down and fits battery is low somehow. It is once at 10 percent and again when they die. That’s it.

      It’s not loud, it’s not annoying, just a little created sound to tell you battery is low.
