If mine ever die I’ll immediately buy another pair.
Ordering another set today to replace these and will be happy with another couple years use. They work every time, sound good, have no connection issues.
Recently thought I’d branch out and try the lower price point Anker p40 and the a40. Both sets had issues, failed connections, poor sound quality variably and the one set eventually stayed phone connected even when in the case and out of range. Just didn’t work reliably for day to day work uses.
Really wanted to like the ankers, but so far nothing works as well as the Apple air pods. Also have had some Apple gen3s which were great, but since I can’t tell a difference, will stick with the cheaper gen2 sets.
I wanted smaller headphones... a reputable product, for an upcoming international trip. At first pass, I was extremely impressed out of the box! Great sound, bass, and comfort. I then put my new AirPods to the test on a recent domestic flight. Unfortunately, I was unimpressed with entire lack of noise cancellation, and the need to turn the volume darn near all the way up just to hear audible voices in movies.
I can't imagine working out in these (bouncing around), but I can see where these would serve well elsewhere. I will make these work for my international flight... using the AirPods as my sole source for music and such. They are incredibly small and compact for travel, and hold an outstanding battery charge. Glad I purchased these... just not my go-to for preferred (again), air-travel purposes.
