The batteries of my Sony whateverXM3s (the true wireless ones) recently gave out, and I was positively surprised to find that the battery was a standard cell that was pretty easy to find. Prying the open was annoying, but doable.
You were lucky! Those were the most repairable earbuds… Until now 🙂

Huh, neat. Well, I’m still quite happy with them, actually, and hope they’ll continue to do their jobs for a long time. Bought them because the review were pretty good, and they where on sale for 80€ at a local retailer (was right after the XM4s dropped).
Those earbuds at 80€ would be a steal still now!
Yeah, I got lucky. Retailer wanted to get rid of them to make space for the next generation.
Great article, thanks!
