I want to love these but at the price point you can basically buy 3-4 sets of (likely) technically comparable wireless earbuds that will (likely) last a year or two. How long can I expect fairbuds to last? I can't imagine it would be close to a decade even with replacing batteries
- prmoustache 2y agoThe point is mostly to avoid ewaste, not save money.
- ray_v 2y agoI guess that's also kinda my poorly made point -- I imagine that these earbuds are like any other electronic device in the fact that they'll break in a handful of years and end up being irreparable in some way that results in just replacing them. I'm not sure what the answer is to any of this of course
- LegitShady 2y agoif they wanted to avoid ewaste they wouldn't have removed the 3.5mm jack and I would still use normal headphones.
- dzhiurgis 2y agoFair, but tiny earbuds are not exactly massive contributor to ewaste (or total waste).
