ALWAYS GETS ME AAAARRRRRRGHHHHHHH I make sure I disconnect them from all devices; I make sure they are well positioned in their cases; that the charging lights are on etc and yet… they disappoint me like this…

    My AirBuds are FIVE(!) years old and I used them every single day all day at work, for walks, all the time and the case’s battery is still EXCELLENT. I know Apple Bad and whatnot but their wireless headphones are of excellent quality.

    I now have a pair of Pros because I needed the ANC, but I still use my regular ones to nap and stuff.

    I’ve also never experienced OP’s issue with them.

      I never use Apple stuff because of the price, but yeah i do understand some of their stuff came with exceptional good quality. Emphasise “some” though.

      My samsung gen 1 galaxy buds are still perfectly fine too, use them to this day at the gym back from 2019-2020. Premium wireless in those days were made of some surprisingly stern stuff. Used to be a diehard Sennheiser guy but their stuff would just stop working after a year or two, wired or not.

      My Motorola HT820 bluetooth headset is old enough to vote (18 years), and still holds a charge for a few hours. Tech can last if built right.
