Resurrecting this thread, in light of the release of the new iPhone 7. Although the demise will be slow, I believe Apple's decision to nix the 3.5mm headphone jack from the new iPhone decisively put a nail in the coffin for the consumer wired headphone category in the long term. We will certainly continue to see wired headphones in professional use for now.
Their will undoubtedly be folks who'll point out that Apple has < 20% of the world's smartphone market share, but my counter argument is that Apple sets trends that others follow - and we've seen countless examples of this in the past.
Perhaps its best to start a new thread that focuses exclusively on reviews and comparisons of wireless headphones.
