Worthwhile thread, but I also feel like by definition true wireless buds cannot be BIFL sadly. I don't think a single model from any manufacturer has replaceable batteries or parts, so every single set will be ultimately disposable after a couple years.

Haven't tried them, but fairbuds should be repairable

+1 I love mine

For me, it is the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live. Shaped like beans, the best part is that they don't plug your ear canal. They have "active noise cancelation" but they do little when they aren't sealed, I'd rather that they enhanced things like speech or could recognize different sorts of alarms and alerts, muting the playing audio for potential alerts. I know that's a strange feature few others would probably want. They are absolutely the most comfortable things I've ever worn and I wish Samsung would release an update with better batteries and support for non-Samsung devices, or some other manufacturer would release a competing product that brings those better audio codecs. There are some other "open ear" type of designs, but still nothing which really competes in the space.

Thank you, I was actually looking for durable, high quality earbuds. Do you happen to know if the battery is replaceable somehow?
