With completely wireless earbuds, the rule is: when the battery fails, they have to be disposed of. Not so with the Fairbuds, that allow you to replace batteries in just a few seconds. Combined with a repairable design, the earbuds should therefore have an extremely long lifetime.
Ugh? I used to burn through wired earbuds at a pace of maybe one pair per month. You basically have to sit and not move if you don’t want to damage the wire IME
How much are you paying for your headphones? Nicer ones that don’t break as easily are probably a cost effective option for you.
And still like only $20 for ones with the ability to replace a broken wire
Some of the better ones have removable cables. You’ll usually just yank them out or worst case if the cable is damaged you can easily replace it.
