    Bluetooth headphones and accessories are terrific; a world without cables would be much simpler. But they have their downsides, like when they run out of battery when you weren't expecting it. If you have a Pixel 2 or Pixel 2 XL , however, you can now keep an eye on battery status so that you're prepared.
