Fatal flaw in battery
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't get me wrong, I am very much happy with the overall performance with these earbuds. They are comfortable, have a nice sound quality, good bass, and excellent ANC. However, despite the battery life being decent, around the 1.5 year mark the right earbud NOSEDIVED. The left earbud functions completely fine, while the right earbud dies within 30 minutes from a 100% charge. This is a known problem among the community surrounding this device, some people struggle with the left earbud, some on the right earbud, but the story is the same, around the same time owning this device, one earbud with entirely fail on you. I love this device, and want to support it, but I can't. Reaching out to customer service gave me troubleshooting solutions and a referral to a third party repair service, nothing more since I was just outside the warranty window. They were polite and willing to help until they knew my device wasn't in warranty. I'm sorry but at $200 this device should last more than a year and a half, this is a fatal flaw in the battery, not normal battery decay you get with most devices. The community loves this device Sony, and I love your products, but you failed us with this one.
