As the years have passed the demand for wireless headphones have increased. People are sick of having a cord attached to their headphones. Either they are too long or too short. They also get tangled up, not only when you put them away, but also when you’re doing different activities. Whether you’re working out or just sitting around, not having the wire is what people really want.
To that end, the headphone industry has responded by making more wireless headphones. As they have sold more, the industry has invested more money and created headphones that continually get better with sound, battery life, microphones, and build quality. There’s no sign of this trend slowing down.
