True wireless earbuds don't necessarily have to end up as electronic waste when their batteries reach the end of their lifespan. Fairphone demonstrates this with the Fairbuds 2, whose batteries can be easily replaced. The earbuds also offer active noise cancellation and support for Sony LDAC.
Iems with anc? Or regular ones?
I don’t doubt that anc capable wired iems exist, I’m just not sure they wouldn’t be absurdly expensive
No, I dont like ANC.
Do they exist? They would need to connect via usb-C
Well, there’s wired over ears with anc, but they have a battery iirc.
Which I guess would be possible for iems too, just clunky as hell.
A = active. I.e. powered.
No, really? Wouldn’t have guessed that.
