Apple AirPods are designed to die: Here’s what you should know

2 years ago by Dragxito to c/technology

AirPods are nearly impossible to repair and their batteries are short-lived. Apple should design them to last.

Huh, no shipping to the US it seems. I guess I'll be waiting for a while then.

They are planning to extend. I wouldn't hold my breath though until they give a solid date.

Yup. They finally released the Fairphone after years, but it's only the Fairphone 4, through a reseller, and only supports T-Mobile and its MVNOs.

So yeah, not sure if/when they'll ship the buds to US customers.
