    I dunno, people seem to have a real hard-on for pissing over Fairphone, in a totally weird way. And this travelled over from Reddit. And I know the majority of /r/android has long been Samsung fanbois, but sometimes it gets ridiculous. 😅

    Back to the actual topic at hand, wow they’re chunkers. Ouff. Since I have a comparatively small head these would look pretty weird on me I imagine. But OTOH, damn is it impressive to build earbuds - a device usually filled with glue - with a user-replaceable battery. I kinda want to support them assuming I need new headphones any time soon.

      I hope these people don’t find out that the Framework 16 notebook got rid of an on-board headphone jack and moved to a USB-C adapter as well. There might be riots.

      Fuck, I have a Samsung phone (from work, not actually mine but private use permitted) and Fairbuds XL. I use products from both companies on a daily basis. Which camp to I have to join now?

        Can’t you still buy a headphone jack, though? Which to me is actually cool. Consistency, the more modular the better.

        Ah, I’m sorry to inform you but the company shill police is on their way. You will be re-indoctrinated, probably for Apple.
