The dark truth about Apple AirPods 🎧

Did you know AirPods are designed to be almost impossible to repair? With glued batteries and no screws, they earned a 0 out of 10 repairability score from iFixit. After roughly 18 months of daily use, the batteries start dying, and Apple’s $48 “repair” fee per earbud is actually just a forced replacement swap. With over 400 million pairs sold, millions end up as e-waste within just a few years. Planned obsolescence at its finest—were they ever really meant to last?
