This repair is so difficult it’s insane! This crap MUST be made illegal! With all that EU was doing about right to repair, did they overlook Wireless Earbuds? Why can’t they just design it so some part would simply unscrew and give access to the insides? Why do you need to solder the battery?! I literally have a Gillette Razor with a battery inside and all I need to do to open it up is a quick twist. There’s a rubber gasket, and I’ve used that thing for like 15 years now probably, submerging it into water, cleaning, all of that - ZERO problems. Why does Apple need to bath AirPods in a glue?! This is madness!

[@ViperClone]

Probably for size durability and quality of product. But we know the real reason 💸

The problem with apple isn’t pricing only, you can buy professional equipment for 10 times the price of the AirPods, the problem with it is the longevity, if I buy a 300$ earphones I’d expect them to last at least 10 years before buying another pair, not 2-3 years !

[@Safi-Zargar]

The problem is the battery. So most they only last 4 to 5 years for me.

[@marvzki]

If you are careful with your device maybe it can last 10 years. But the battery, it won't matter how you take care of it, it will still degrade as time passes on.

[@MonstertruckBadass]

@@kc_jones_gaming Ooooh, do tell!

[@kc_jones_gaming]

@@MonstertruckBadass The warehouse has an entire section of steel dedicated to counterfeit, 3rd party lightning cables. For people that don’t know, the serial number on your cable matches the serial number of the phone it’s packaged with. It’s an off white, size 1 font serial number on the outside of the cable. You generally need high magnification and light to see it. I have a theory that they have a code that burns pins on cheap 3rd party connectors. The engineers had a special hate for “counterfeit cables” so it wouldn’t surprise me if my theory became true

[@WhatWillYouFind]

I still lament ever since the launch and craze over small BT headphones. No one thinks about all the batteries and waste these things end up being. Sitting hear wearing my 12 year old Sony MDRs, I have a set of 1980s Porta Pros. These things last forever if you take care of them. Thats the problem, batteries made these consumables and not "products" like a lot of Americans think of when we buy electronics. I have computers as old as 12-15 years old that still run. These days Apple builds in electrical runoff as they put high volt power rails right next to data lines which inevitably causes device failure 5 years down the line. It makes me angry that this is "preferred" among the general populace, we've allowed companies to enslave people into a cycle of infinite buying crap that does very little to enrich our lives.

[@md.shahadathossain9828]

Few months ago I replaced the battery of my 2.5 year old soundcore liberty 2 pro. In Bangladesh I did not find the exact same battery, so I had to connect 2 of 30mah battery parallelly and to make it even more clumsy I had to separate and use the bms from the previous battery. Man that was quite hard with limited tools, but it did work!

[@TemptationsEnd]

Hey so an idea you could use next time if you ever come back to this idea is. You could always wrap some electrical tape or thermal tape around the contacts for the battery. As it looks like the tolerances were made with virtually no wiggle room to keep the contact (:

They make these this way on purpose, they want you to buy a new set instead of repairing them. Though I've not heard or used this brand, Fairphone Fairbuds, they are designed to be able to replace the batteries in the earbuds and the charging case if they go bad. And they are IP54 rated so splash/sweat proof. Not to mention that the Fairphone is also very repairable and anyone can do it with a little common sense.
