The Fairbuds XL just became the first headphones to earn a 10/10 repairability score on our new headphone scorecard! Replaceable battery. Replaceable ear pads. Modular design. Actual repair manuals. This is what headphones look like when they’re built to last instead of built for the landfill.

@iFixit Just out of interest, have you tested AIAIAI audio?

@iFixit @AnnaAnthro Glad to see this post coz I didn’t realize that iFixit was here (Mastodon)! Now following, thanks for sharing.

@iFixit nice! I literally just had to go looking for new covers for my headphones because the plastic ones disintegrated, so this is relevant to me.

@iFixit Certainly my next pair once my trusty Sonys die 👍

@iFixit you could have tested the original made by repeat.audio, strikingly similar, but a few years earlier.

@iFixit I had ordered one as a gift a few days before seeing this news. They are great headphones. I'll be ordering myself a pair as well.

@iFixit i bought thoese, and they are great!
