For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

I used to have a similar problem - even if well reviewed, budget and midrange bluetooth earbuds would not last while budget-midrange wired earphones would last forever.

Think it's just build quality for bluetooth buds. I got a set of Galaxy buds, 1st gen, roughly 3+ years and still running strong to this day. Was not cheap though.

I've been through two pairs of Sennheiser's wireless buds, and I'm just over it.

The only thing that might bring me back is the ANC, but even then I get significantly better ANC from my over ears, so probably not.
