Why not just an adapter?
You have to make sure to keep an adapter as well then. One more thing to get lost for some people.
If this is for a computer, then losing that cable is gonna be hard. If it's for a phone, then I worry the earphones will be way higher quality than the phone.
And phones without 3.5mm are just cash grabs for big vendors selling battery-radio earphones with shit sound.
I keep mine attached to the cable
Sure, but not everbody does. Some people use one adapter and multiple devices.
If you use it for multiple devices it's obviously doing more work! But you can just buy two and never disconnect them
