I have an older pair of Plantronics headphones (from 2018) and honestly there’s nothing wrong with them. They still sound good. I replaced the earpads maybe 6 months ago because the originals wore out and split open. But now they’re as good as new.
The only reason I think of upgrading to something more current is because they charge with the old school micro USB (the kind that has 2 pins on one side) and everything else I own charges with USB C. It’s annoying that I have to keep an old school micro USB cable because that’s the only way to charge the headphones but it feels like a waste to get rid of them and upgrade to something with a USB C charging port.
What should I do? Quit whining and get rid of the Plantronics for something current? Or should I just ride with the Plantronics until the wheels fall off?
Buy micro to c converter and leave it plugged into the headset. Then you can keep the headset and charge it with whatever you got to hand.
I’ve done this with an old pair and works fine. It may be worth noting that I have had a few of these adapter’s fail over time. So if OP takes this solution, I would not recommend permanently fixating the adapter to the headphones (e.g. with super glue)
There’s surely a story there?
He affixed an adapter with super glue and it failed.
Oh my gosh, what a rollercoaster of a story.
He came to a sticky end.
I don’t believe you
Why would anyone think this was ok to do
A single moment of madness.
