Have been wireless for some time now and after initial resistance, now find I prefer it, although I still remained wired when outdoors due to the fear of losing one of the buds. Alison

Taylor Sent: 08 January 2023 05:44 To: viphone@googlegroups.com Cc: vipho...@googlegroups.com Subject: Have you Gone Wireless, Yet? Hello All, I have long been a fan of Apple wired Ear Pods. I had to have my original beloved 8 Plus replaced, about a month prior to its warranty expiration because the audio function of the Lightening port went bad. For the last 6-months or so, perhaps longer, while the Lightening port on my replacement 8 Plus still functioned as expected, it lost the ability to retain a cable, unassisted. This is to say, when I hold the phone in portrait mode, perpendicular to the ground, any attached cable will fall out. I am certain that I was the blame for this as I used to frequently roll onto the phone, when sleeping; very often tangling the cable with tension for hours at a time. (How's that for too much information? (smile)). My point, I am determined not to ruin the Lightening port on my 14. With that in mind, I am doing my best to wing myself from the wired Ear Pods in favor of Apple Air Pods. Even though I like Air Pods and they are definitely more convenient to use than the wired alternative, I still find myself reaching for the wired pair, more than anything else. I was just wondering how many of you have gone completely wireless having all but abandoned the wired Ear Pods? It is interesting because when I go to Best Buy, Target, Walmart, etc. I always see wired Ear Pods, with either the Lightening or audio connector, readily available. All replies appreciated.
