With the Fairbuds, Fairphone extends the concept of its smartphones and the Fairbuds XL over-ear headphones to in-ears and endeavours to manufacture products from fairly produced materials wherever possible. However, the longevity of the Fairbuds benefits above all from the fact that all components can at least be replaced by the user, if not repaired...
Fairphone stands for sustainability like no other tech brand. And thanks to the interchangeable parts, especially the battery, the Fairbuds are something very special on the in-ears market. But that doesn't make up for the technical weaknesses: the sound is dull and boring, and the battery life is quite short at just 4.5 hours...
The Fairbuds could do with some software updates to sharpen up the sound. At the moment, you have to decide what is more important to you when making your choice.
