Comment on The Paradox of Blackmarket Wired Bluetooth Apple headphones.
sqgl@beehaw.org 4 weeks agoI suspect the ranting author failed to appreciate that Bluetooth is probably cheaper to implement for the audio because regular phones require three wires while charging only requires two. Ingenious really.

There is a soundcard in the bluetooth headphones and wires are dirt cheap, it’s not about that. Proper lightning headphones require getting your product certified by apple ($$$) and a special apple chip added in ($$$) because iPhones refuse to connect to devices that aren’t.
But they will connect to every bluetooth device.
