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?
check out magnetic charging cables. you could but the microusb dongle in your headphones and then never think about it again, just connect the magnetic cable to the dongle whenever you need a charge. I do that with my gaming headset and it works great for me
