Yup. And the way AirPods’ battery life is, not only are they irreparable, they’re also kaput after only like 2 years.
At least they can be used for 2 years. What about single use vapes? Those things have a lithium battery but people throw them everywhere, instead of recycling them.
We can care about both. They are all awful.
While airpods are dogwater in terms of recycling, I have a 2nd hand pair or them and 2 years later they still work like in the beggining.
Because you don't use them enough to discharge them completely
Perhaps, I use them when walking around mostly or in the night. At PC i have dedicated headphones.
