    I'd suggest trying to buy it from a non-amazon source if you're looking for a phone.

    @xinit @iFixit Yes, I do not like to support Bezos, if possible. So thank you for the leads!

      The Fairbuds XL just became the first headphones to earn a 10/10 repairability score on our new headphone scorecard! Replaceable battery. Replaceable ear pads. Modular design. Actual repair manuals. This is what headphones look like when they’re built to last instead of built for the landfill.

      @iFixit nice! I literally just had to go looking for new covers for my headphones because the plastic ones disintegrated, so this is relevant to me.

          @SkylerHandler @iFixit not the XL, they’re quite good. Check out RTINGS for their review

            @iFixit Fantastic headphones! I've used mine every day for over a year and have no complaints. Great sound. Easy to upgrade and repair.

              @iFixit Just got a pair about 2 months ago! Hopefully I won't have to do any repairs soon, but it's good to know that it's possible.

                @iFixit this is relevant to my interests, as my noise-cancelling headphones last about six months before developing a fault or breaking apart

                  @iFixit you could have tested the original made by repeat.audio, strikingly similar, but a few years earlier.

                    @iFixit I had ordered one as a gift a few days before seeing this news. They are great headphones. I'll be ordering myself a pair as well.

                        @niggoo @iFixit Yes, same here! Once my old Bose-headset beats the dust I will be buying the Fairbuds XL - I'm so tired of things not being built to last 😒 😃

                            @Unfoldedmemory000 @iFixit is this a headphone where only an app can activate "the better" audio codecs or does this work fine via BT? I really do not want an app just to use some headphones 😩

                            Very interested. Especially since this also has *buttons* and not this motion sensing bs.

                              @iFixit I just sat on mine and a piece broke. I instantly ordered a replacement piece and not a week later it was fixed.

                                @iFixit

                                This makes me wonder.. How many pairs of headphones or "buds" did y'all buy from new in, say, the last 5 years?
