Let’s get one thing straight, JayBird has convinced me to never go back to wrapping a wire around me when I decide to put in earbuds. Whether it be for simple audio playback on a plane or going for jog, a Bluetooth headset will always be my first choice. Especially, that it also can be used for answering phone calls.
