    Audio latency with Bluetooth screws up things like music lessons in Duolingo.

    A few weeks ago I was gardening with Pixel Buds on and one dropped into a pile of leaves. I spent ten minutes looking for the thing. Then the other day the same one dropped into the garbage disposal while I was doing the dishes.

    I don’t mind the cheap Bluetooth headphones I have that wrap around my ear slightly. I can run in those without them dropping out.

    When I want audio quality I use some over-ear Bose headphones.

    I have no idea how people are ok with just the little buds for all use-cases.
