One thing I find irritating is how people have been pushed to Bluetooth (BT) for their headphones due to the removal of the headphone jack. The standard headphone jack (3.5mm) is a proven connector that just works. I doubt that it was due to waterproofing issues because I think there should be a way to deal with the issue such as a cap when it's not in use.
I've got a pair of BT headphones (Shokz OpenMove) and while not having wires is a convenience, it's frustrating when I listening to something and the signal just cuts off. I don't know why it cuts off (I've eliminated the distance and low power as issues) and I wonder if it has to do with my BT version (4.2) or that I'm using the SBC protocol (since that's the only one my headphones support). Added to that is that my BT headphones don't sound as good as my wired headphones (Koss PortaPro and JVC Flats).
