Lol, it’s funny how a product like this will likely get a solid 4 star rating, meanwhile I’ll find another that is better, has better reviews, and costs easily a quarter of this
You know what didn’t die yet? My 8 year old earbuds that have a wire and plugs into the jack. And guess what, I don’t even have to charge them or worry about losing one of them.
Especially with the growing trend to use wireless headphones to push people to buy new headphones when they don’t need them. It does nothing but create waste and lose us money.
Yeah but you’re assuming that my cheap ones are unethical and your pricey ones are ethical. It’s been proven over and over that these expensive brands employ just as much child/cheap labor as much at the cheapo brand as you say.
The price tag is pretty important.
For my fellow maple syrup gatherers, it’s $219.12 Canadian.
Availability is also pretty important. But you have to go through most of the checkout process before you find out it’s only available in Europe.
All three of them

I was pretty pissed about having my $400 earbuds die after a couple of years. If these things last for six or eight, I’d be happy.

Fuck wireless headphones.

seriously. like I totally get why someone would want them, but to not have the option to use wired too? come on.
Yeah, duh. It’s fair as in “fair trade”, not fair as in “I think it’s fair that child labor in poor countries made my cheapo headphones”.
