Unfortunately I have excessive battery drain in the left earbud of my Sony WF XM4 set. I really like these earbuds and I am going to at least try to fix them. Has anyone here done any thing like this before?

It makes sense, honestly, that the left runs down faster than the right, I use just the left at work all day everyday and only use the right at home maybe once a week. The left lasts 2.5 hours, the right lasts six or more.

    This is why my next pair of earbuds will be from FairPhone. But surprisingly my current ones have lasted me years already without the batteries suffering too much.

      Just looked at these and the ethos seems great. If the audio is high quality I think these will be my next too.

      Looks like a solid choice, but they’re really big. I’m not meant to be listening to music at work so I need to be able to hide them under my hat or hair.

        Sounds like a very niche requirement. They are not big, but definitely bigger than others. You have to sacrifice some size if you’re not glueing everything together like other brands do.
