I have never had that issue with a jackplug. Wireless headphones mean stuttering connection and one more thing with batteries that you need to manage. Also, most of the wireless headphones that I've tried have much smaller cups than the wired variety. I haven't found a pair of wireless in-ears that are as comfortable as my preferred IEMs. In general, they might be okay for movies but not for music with an overemphasis on bass that I hate. The few options that don't sound bad are wildly overpriced.
I imagine wireless headphones are more expensive by definition. So cheap wireless headphones (say 10€) are by definition worse that cheap wired headphones of the same price. I'm willing to pay 50 to 80€ for decent quality, I'm sure that's not the most expensive, but it might be too expensive for some. I've had philips in ear headphones that were just a perfect fit. I sadly lost them recently and now have cheap ones that suck. I'm not much of a sound snob, but these cheap ones have bad sound quality and don't cancel out any outside noise.
I haven't purchased any cheap wireless headphones, certainly not that cheap but the wireless headphones that cost $300 sound significantly worse than a pair of wired headphones that cost half as much, sometimes even less. Same for the earbuds, they tend to sound bad and aren't as comfortable.
