Fragile and too expensive to replace often. The software updates that apple pushes on to them screws them up. Happened to my first set of airpods and swore off of them since then. The batteries are awful too. My go to since then has been th

Not just that, I am tired of wanting to actually work than kowtowing to office rituals like drive to work in rush hour traffic to only then get on teams calls in the open. I am also hearing horror stories of new workplaces being completely
