Fool me once...
- metafunctor 8y agoYeah, just had an amazing two years of trouble-free wireless audio conference calls. Never again!
- yourduskquibble 8y ago> I had a call yesterday and the Airpods were beeping that they were dying at the 20min mark, and didn't make it to 30min on the call. > I love the form factor, and I just ordered the "new" Airpods, because I am hoping the battery life has improved - the old ones are basically a disposable item after the first year, from my experience. The OP complained about battery life and the $200 "disposable" headphones he bought a year ago, but happily bought the next iteration, hence my comment. Fool me once...
- achompas 8y agoOr OP likes them so much they're willing to replace them despite the flawed battery life. Also, OP said they purchased them in 2016 - not a year ago.
- jasongill 8y agoI am complaining, yes, that the battery wore out much faster than I expected, but other than the battery life I love them. The new one is supposed to have much better battery life, and it's only $160 for something that I said I use every day, so it will be worth it if they are better. Even if they aren't, and I had to buy a pair every year, that's like 50 cents a day for something that I enjoy using (until the battery dies)
