Wired 3.5mm jack.
Hear me out. I don’t use Bluetooth headphones. They don’t last the commute and work day.
With a jack you can listen and charge you phone at the same time and never worry about charging your headphones/iem.
If I need to use Bluetooth for connection I still can but overall better battery life
If you add a 3,5mm jack to those small earbuds, there definitely won't be any space for a battery. It's one or the other.
Just to be pedantic; a battery is significantly larger than 2 tiny wires of copper. The battery is almost 50% of the volume in the earbud.
I think he meant having the 3,5 mm jack in a phone.
The buds don’t need a jack. Just the lead that connects to the phone or whatever. That takes no real space.
I'd give up the space of a battery for a jack, yes
