I feel it Bluetooth is more ubiquitous because they did away with the headphone jack. It makes it harder not to use them when you have to have a dongle to use your headphones.

They made direct lightning cable ones, but agreed - you can't charge and listen to music at the same time.

I still occasionally see people in NYC walk around with wired Apple in-ear headphones (the old/classic one) and I think it's either they're on calls for a majority of their day (battery degradation) or they're worried about getting bumped or tripping and having an AirPod fall down the sidewalk grates.

Or ear shape. Mine fit pretty well, but I'm sure if some big guy is running/hustling and hits me, it'll go flying and then I won't use it until I can clean it - don't want an ear infection from something on NYC streets haha.
