Fairphone 5 - The Ars Technica Review - Lemmy.world

With no headphone jack thats gonna be a no for me dawg. How can they promote sustainability and then design a product that is going to be unusable in 5 years max. That’s just the reality of all wireless headphones. The battery will fail to hold charge and they will become useless. Not the truth for wired headphones. Goodwired headphones will last as long as you’re able to take care of them usually

The battery will fail to hold charge and they will become useless. Not the truth for wired headphones.

I don’t know how you use your headphones, but in my case I switched to wireless because every single pair of wired headphones I had would break. Usually the cable, earbuds because they were in my pocket, and the overhead ones I’d drive over with my office chair.

Switched to wireless a couple years ago, no issues since then.

Really? My wired headphones have lasted 10+ years. My oldest bluetooth headset lasted 5.
