Tbf they can't exactly make something with batteries that is designed to last forever can they?

Unless of course, they make the batteries consumer replaceable. But that's not going to happen.

https://shop.fairphone.com/fairbuds Repairable, replaceable earbuds exist. Apple has no excuse. And I say that as an Apple user.

Yeah I'm aware of fairbuds. Apple aren't an outlier in this regard, nobody has any excuse. We need more companies to start offering replacement parts like Fairphone do!!
