The major reason people prefer cordless earbuds or headphones is the independence they provide. There are no cords to get tangled up when walking, no wires to untangle each time you listen, and they are much simpler to move and fit inside bags or backpacks. In addition, some models can connect to two smartphones at once for shared listening. Cordless devices also allow you to take them with you wherever you go. You can use them while working out, commuting, or just doing ordinary daily activities. They are very convenient for people who like to be independent of their phones. Another reason people like cordless devices is because they save money. There are no need to pay for extra charges for using your phone's music player, and you don't have to worry about running out of battery during important calls or messages. Cordless headphones/earbuds also work better than their connected counterparts because they don't require a constant connection to a smartphone or tablet. If you lose signal, the sound will stop too. So there's no risk of being distracted by unwanted noises when you're trying to communicate important matters via phone. Last but not least, cordless devices are considered modern and trendy. They match with any type of outfit and many people prefer them over their connected counterparts due to the fact that they look cooler (no wires hanging down from your ears).
