They actually do break easily, I've replaced my pair 4 times now, thank god I had warranty. Last time they cracked after only two months. Seems to be a manufacturing defect in the plastic that attaches to the earphone part, it's very thin and brittle. I've taken VERY good care of them but they just seem to randomly generate cracks after some time. I agree the sound is amazing, that's why I still bother with them....
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The XB-950XTs do break really easily, right at the hinge and no, I do not abuse them. Just got done soldering them back together with a replacement hinge. I am tightly wrapping electrical tape at the hinge and sealing with black liquid tape to re enforce that spot as will simple break again otherwise. Trying to figure out if my H900N Sonys are as poorly designed. Too nice a sound and too expensive to throw away, even though Sony seems to have designed them that way.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Mine just snapped at the hinge/screws as I removed them. These were rather expensive (on my budget) so I treated them with absolute care. I just looked at the other side and see small cracks forming, so that's clearly going to break pretty soon too. Disappointed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I've had mine for about 2 years now, and I have never had it replaced and I have 1400 hours of usage on it
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They do break easily at the hinges. Common problem for several people here at work. Additionally, lately it turns on and off all the time. I've had to let the battery run out and only use them wired. Very, very annoying!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have had mine in less than two months but they have been pretty solid for me and I use them for hours a day literally as part of my job. Sturdier than my last pair, Beats EP. Same price, Sony is worth at least double!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Mine broke and I took my off like handling eggs ant it rose
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have had 4 pairs and every one has broken hinges. Sound is awesome but they are delicate. Some of the reviews here, where say, they are tough are not talking about the extra bass over the ear sets. They are earbuds they are reviewing so read closely and make sure the reviews are about the right product.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My two sons have these (12 yrs and 14 yrs old). They are durable and seem resilient to general wear and use. I don’t think they’ll break easily.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I purchased these when they first came out, and have had no issue with breakage. Not sure what you are alluding to when you ask about breakage. You have several options for earbud cushions to choose from for fitting purposes, and when you find the right fit they stay in pretty well. No issues with falling out of my ears, and no issues with signal dropping for me. Others have had issues, but I found that keeping the app updated, and getting the one firmware update offered has kept these issues at bay. The only issue I have had is the lack of a volume control on the buds themselves. This is the one con I have with them, and for some it is a deal breaker. Good luck with your choices!
