The headphone jack back/forth issue. I went bluetooth last Xmas and wouldn't go back! I HATED the wire getting caught on everything! Knobs on drawers and they YANK out of my ear! HATED IT! Plus I get days out of my headset and charge it for about 2hrs. and it's ready to go. My EarPods are now a backup in case I want to not wait for the bluetooth to charge. But I went bluetooth and won't be going back. :-)

I have $230 Jaybird bluetooth earbuds and they sound like s**t compared to wired earbuds for a fraction of the price. Bluetooth will always sound worse than wired headphones/earbuds because the bandwith is so small that it requires the audio to undergo a lot lf compression algorithms which result in inferior sound quality. The only thing they are good for is exercising so the cord isn't in your way or I guess taking phone calls.
