I stopped buying wireless earbuds for one simple reason

I can’t count how many times I’ve pulled earbuds from my pocket, put them in, and found them dead — whether I’m stepping on a treadmill or boarding a long train. I end up stuck with the gym’s music or the train’s announcements. For years, I accepted this as the cost for true wireless stereo (TWS) convenience. AirPods and Galaxy Buds cut the cord and feel futuristic.
