With completely wireless earbuds, the rule is: when the battery fails, they have to be disposed of. Not so with the Fairbuds, that allow you to replace batteries in just a few seconds. Combined with a repairable design, the earbuds should therefore have an extremely long lifetime.

I think you misunderstood, I want wireless headphones that have the two earbuds connected via a wire so you know, one doesn’t just pop out if your ear and drop on the street.

Bang and Olufsen used to make a set like that, they were pretty snazzy.

They are called “Wireless” headphones when there is a wire connecting them. “True Wireless” means two separate earbuds.

Then “true wireless” is a bad experience, at least from my eyes.

Ears?

Ah, indeed I did.

I think JBL and some other brands do carry such earbuds, but maybe it might not be thz kind of wire you’d fancy. There are also cheaper options that have a wire linking the two ear buds, but as I said those are usually cheap and might not be up to your standards.
