I'm searching for a community talking about wireless (bluetooth) earbuds, thanks!

If no specific ones, audio hardware related ones might do if you have recommendations

I'm looking for reviews of some products and recommendations to make a good choice, and see what people are using

More or less all of the issues were there from the start. I might have just gotten a lemon, though, like I said. The issues haven't really gotten any better or worse over time. Except for the one that broke the other day, obviously.

Charging pins might be fucked

I maybe used the wrong terms above but that's what I meant by cleaning contacts. I think that was swenglish. I've cleaned the charging pins with contact cleaner, still wonky. Might just be fucked from the factory though.

Compared to the price and sound quality overall, I knew there would be some tradeoffs but I believe I'll keep using 1MORE because the competition is just so much more expensive. I was even surprised good earbuds aren't like 50€, like really, those things are tiny and not super technical

Yeah this is the worst thing tbh. I'm stingy as fuck so I don't want to put hundreds of euros on earbuds, and when they work the ComfoBuds were great for the price point.

Oh, that makes much more sense

I’m starting to believe it’s a mix of bad luck + they had some sort of design failure because we both had the same thing fail.

The contacts / charging pins / however you call them did get dirty and started to develop blue or green things on them? Can’t really remember what it was but it was a bit gross indeed.

I believe you’re using Android? On iOS, the 1MORE buds have additional problems, like the lowest volume level being too high or the app struggling to connect. Some of this still happens on Android from my tests but is much more reliable overall. Sound quality also seems to sound better, like more immersive, on Android
