Only an apple zombie would be loyal to a product that crappy 5 times? My $30 Sesh earbuds work like a champ after several years. Then I got the $100 pixel A buds for free with a new phone and have been using those for years with no problems. Since they were so cheap I use the Sesh buds in the shower to listen to music or podcasts and they still work fine. I abuse cheaper products and they last longer than luxury brand crap.

I mean, if you don’t understand that I only paid once and that Apple replaced them freely even out of warranty. And that, that’s why I keep using the AirPods Pro (1st gen) for now.

I don’t know what else to tell you. You can call me an “Apple zombie” if that satisfies yourself. But it doesn’t make sense.

I’m not going to explain myself to a stranger that soft-insult and can’t even give an good argument as to why I should not keep using them while Apple replaces them for free until I decide to purchase different in-earbuds.

How much of your time was wasted dealing with a faulty product? That's beyond frustrating. When I spend apple money on something I expect it to work.

I understand you don’t like Apple. That’s fair. But you keep pressuring your opinion on others (me). You changed topics the moment, I told you, you didn’t understand my first comment.

Was it frustrating? Perhaps a little, I suppose. I don’t remember how much time, I spent. I don’t care either. The service was easy, quick and good. That’s what matters.

When I spend apple money on something I expect it to work.

Lets rephrase that shall we? “When I spent money on something, I expect it to work.”

Indeed. I expected it to work, it didn’t. Unfortunately several times but they replaced the product without any issue. So problems quickly solved.

Life isn’t going to always be in your favor. Have patience and find a solution.

EDIT:

why I should not keep using them while Apple replaces them for free until I decide to purchase different in-earbuds.

You also didn’t give me an actual good argument yet on this.

Haha no shit. It's like 1000 worth of air pods.

Customers like this deserve to be ripped off imo.

Reading comprehension fail.
