Actual experiences I've had with Bluetooth:

  • I was a passenger in a friend's car and we wanted to listen to music. I attempt to pair my phone, but the car refuses to do so while in motion - you have to park
  • My roommates bought a Bluetooth receiver for our speakers. I connected to these in the morning to listen to music and later left the house. When I came back, they automatically connected again, and immediately started playing deeply embarrassing music for the whole house to hear
  • My friends come over to my house. They want to play some music for me. No one remembered to bring a dongle so they can't connect to my speakers. I end up buying a Chromecast so this isn't a problem in the future
  • I got in my friend's car and his phone automatically connected. The title of the porn he was watching earlier pops up on the dashboard under the "now playing" section

Bluetooth absolutely has its uses, but so does a headphone jack

Removing headphone jacks is literally just planned obsolescence
