Sabaidee, Welcome!
This is a community for promoting sustainability in tech and computing. This includes: understanding the impact that our tech/computing choices have on the environment; purchasing or re-using devices that are sustainable and repairable; how to properly recycle or dispose of old devices when it is beyond use; and promoting software and services that allow us to reduce our environmental impact in the long term, both at work and in our personal lives.
This isn't a competition, it's a reminder to stay grounded when making your decisions. Remember: The most sustainable device is the one that you are already using.

Seems like a neat idea, i just worry about replacement parts and repairs internationally. Also would love to see a nice frequency response test from an independent reviewer, of course ;p
When you buy their headphones, you can choose whether to sign up for a repair service, which comes in two flavours. You can choose unlimited repairs per year or unlimited repairs forever, where you pay a larger amount once and are guaranteed repair service for the rest of your life.
Hmmm, I don't know. I'm disappointed that they don't seem to be using common rechargeable AA or AAA batteries, but who knows, maybe they do. The "lifetime" repair service is more reasonable than I expected, at about a 1/3+ of the price of the headphones.
