Repairable earbuds are now here, so that's pretty cool. https://shop.fairphone.com/fairbuds

It's not for me because I like wired but it's much better than apples.

Ugh. Gross I hate the in ear canal things. Absolutely the worst.

My problème is that all the non apple ear phones wireless suck. Iike the plain basic airpods for the ear fit. Not because apple.

Downvotes shall list better headphones.

I myself have not found a better solution.

I like apple headphones and i settled on similar shaped non-apple brand at a fraction af the price, but it is lower in quality compared to apple. Microphone is crap and I stopped trying to use it. Headphones level is good at low level and high level sound reproduction, but it is not as accurate as apple.

In the end the trade off is worth it to me for the price, but i will not claim at is better.

So, bring on your alternative and price of it.

How are Apple’s AirPods not “in ear canal things”?

[–] Thekingoflorda@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

I think they mean without a eartip. The airpod pro’s have them but all their other earbuds do not have eartips.

Ugh, i hate people that think only their view of the world is valid.

[–] ripcord@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I don't agree with them, but I also didnt read that they thought others weren't valid. They seemed like they were just expressing that this isn't a good option for them (or people like them)

[–] WallEx@feddit.de 0 points 7 months ago

Yeah maybe they are just talking from there perspective, but its so assuming, it just strikes me the wrong way.

[–] Emmie@lemm.ee 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah relax with this agression or we gonna have Reddit all over again

[–] WallEx@feddit.de 0 points 7 months ago

Yeah, you might be right.
