[QUOTE="desiibond, post: 2363131, member: 23023"] As I said, just because you dislike a product does not mean that it is bad. People change 60k rupee phone every other year. No body cares if an IEM lasts 10 years. Those who buy TWS are not buying that to hand it over to their grand kids. They buy for the comfort and ease it offers right then and right there. One can go with Apple care plus plan for Airpods pro and get full 2 year warranty that also covers accidental damage. For airpods pro, they charge 2500/- for this full cover. From what I have seen, Apple products last long, really long. When these airpods can last minimum of three years, it is a perfect product for 'normal' users who can afford them. Again, this is purely your PoV. Saying this again. People buying these product do not care about all this jargon. They dont even know what lies inside an airpods pro or XM4s. Also, you are seriously misguided again here.[B] You cannot compare the reliability of wired vs wireless. Wired is for long term use but with usual discomfort of wires. Wireless is for comfort and ease of use, with shorter life span of products.[/B] Every one who buys these are aware. A land line lasts a decade minimum but a mobile lasts 5 years max (if one is lucky). This does not mean that one has to go back to landline just because it lasts longer. These new models offer nice balance of reliabilityk, audio quality and ease of use. This is what matters and this why they sell a lot. Who cares if TWS supports gaming!
