Why I use wired earphones while working
Using wired headphones make me much more productive. Here's why:
They're a single use device. I only use them when I'm working, so when I put them on, my brain goes into work mode.
I tend to get a headache when I wear AirPods for too long - these don't. It allows me to concentrate for longer.
A wired connection just works. It saves me brain power from worrying about whether my laptop is going to start playing my music out loud.
Wireless do have a place - they're great when you're on the go (wires tend to snag on stuff). But wired headphones are the clear winner when you're working at a desk doing focused work.
