I bought the original fairbuds at launch. I’m not gonna pretend they are good sound quality for music - bass especially is terrible - but they are fine for podcasts and the like. I’ve had to have one bud - right iirc - replaced under warranty, no hassle beyond the obvious annoyance of it breaking. When they break again, I’ll likely replace them with whatever version of fairbuds exist then. Ultimately I care more about how fairphone source their materials, the reparebility, and setting a precident, than if a pair of buds I use for maybe 3 hours a week are a bit crap. Not a glowing review, but yknow.

    AFAIK there’s an upper limit to how good can they sound anyway because Bluetooth is kinda crap for audio.
