How to keep apple earbuds from breaking

I think I’ve gone through about 20 pairs of those Apple earbuds in the past couple years. They’re great for skiing cause they’re loud but you can also hear what’s going on around you, but for whatever reason, those mfs break so easily. The remote will quit working for no reason or one of the earbuds will just stop putting out sound. Anyone know how to fix this shit. Probably not but it’s worth the ask. I take good care of them and don’t bend the weak sections too much.

I think your best course of action is to buy another pair. Don't want your homies to catch you lackin without the airpod drip nomsayin

Edit fuck I thought we was clowning airpods. My bad. yeah idk dude maybe try literally any cheap non-noise canceling ear bud instead of the ones that keep breaking on you

20x26 Dollars = 520 dollars
this fool could have bought 2 pairs of airpod pros, which are water resistant (which is likely the problem, snow getting in the earbuds)

do you wear them under your jacket? if not then that's probably the issue because they're probably getting snow in them and frying the electronics

My outdoor tech mantis bluetooth earbuds have lasted. Its been about half a year and only one has died, and this has been through daily use outside landscaping at work. Give it a go when they have a sale again they were only about 100
