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’re interpreting my frustration with having to deal with an insulin pump hose, as frustration with the person suggesting using wired headphones. Imagine headphone wires you can’t take off. On you 24/7 except for showering, and they get caught on every. Freaking. Thing. Frustrating. I’m not also going to deal with wired headphones on top of that annoyance.
I’m sorry you have to deal with that.
But our point is that having a little extra hole in your phone isn’t going to matter to you.
I didn’t reply to the insulin pump part, sorry. It was toward the other part, which implied to me that there are people who don’t want to deal with cables, so no one should be about to use them.
