You can't charge the iPhone 7 and listen to music, will you be going wireless?

The only major downside with moving to EarPods with a Lightning connector in the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus seems to be that you can't really charge the handsets, and plug the headphones at the same time to listen to some tunes. 

Everything else in terms of compatibility is kinda taken care of when Apple included a Lightning-to-3.5mm-port adapter in the new iPhones' box, or else the European Commission would have given them the stinky eye even more. Plus, the new AirPods that will ship next month are cheaper and offer longer battery life than most truly wireless earbud solutions out there, not to mention that you can charge them five times over from the carrying case alone. We like it when Apple feels queasy.

That is why we wanted to ask you whether, if you are used to charging and listening to music at the same time, you are considering going wireless with your audio gear, be it headphones, earbuds, or speakers. There is an ever-growing collection of Bluetooth headsets and speakers out there, and it is only bound to increase after Apple's iPhone 7 announcement, so tell us your plans in the poll below, and shoot your opinion on the matter in the comments.
