With the advancements in technology, particularly AI now, what is the smartest smartphone in your opinion? And I don’t mean in terms of raw power or tech specs, but rather the likes of the OS, UI, or features and functions.

    I like to have spare earbuds just lying around, e.g. some in the car glovebox. With wireless earbuds, even if a buy multiple sets, they would need charging.

    And plugging in is far fewer steps then finding the BT connection option is I’m not just using them with one device.

    USB C earbuds are a partial fix, but i have sometimes wanted to be charging my phone.

      I don’t know about your phone, but my headphones connect with just one button push.

        Android 14 is drag down twice, hold finger on Bluetooth button, select from list.

        IOS on iPad is drag down from top right, hold finger on network buttons, hold finger on Bluetooth button, select from list.

        Windows 11 is just 3 taps.

        Do you mean that you have a button on the front screen that connects specifically to one Bluetooth device, or do you get a popup when your headphones are on?

          My Bluetooth is always on, so I just click the button on the headphone and I’m connected.

            My Bluetooth is always on too. I’m talking about choosing the earbuds to connect to.

            They’d probably auto connect if I only ever used them with my phone, but since I use them with more then ones device, I need to keep selecting them on whatever I’m using.
