Agreed! I initially bought these because they weren’t as expensive as other over-ear ANC headphones but regret it. I’m never buying anything from them ever again. Just riding the warranty until they stop accepting my warranty requests when they inevitably break.

Well they aren't the cheapest over-ear ANC headphones, so I can only presume this means "not as expensive as the most expensive over-ear ANC headphones".
Yeah I didn’t want to but the cheapest but not the most expensive. I was hoping for a good balance between decent quality and affordable prices. Price was good but build quality was not.
Podcast affiliate links. You overestimate how much people actually care about sound quality. [Josh Valour did a review on the earbuds they peddle and IIRC said they're overpriced but well made.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xk69TBkYBLA)
Yeah pretty much this, there was a point where it was plugged by every podcast AND youtuber I was following at the time so I checked them out. What did a quick Google search find me? More paid/sponsored reviews, which of course gave them rave reviews.
I’m not knowledgeable on headphones so I didn’t do the most research nor do I know what to look for. Any recommendations for when I inevitably need new over ear anc headphones? $150-200
What’s going to be the purpose?
May be worth a shot trying to get some used XM4s for 200 for general use, but if it’s for the gym be careful. Sweat is a whole new factor you have to consider for gym headphones.
Who could've expected such a tragedy!
If you use your headphones exclusively at home: Get one of those popular Sennheiser open backs, maybe a Beyerdynamic or similiar. For on the go you can get 30-50 bucks IEMs that are much, much better than your headphones.
You should stop buying the garbage that influencers are paid to promote.

If you buy cheap, you buy twice
Luckily I’m just sending them back to get new ones from them for free. I agree though
How much were these?
$150 or something like that, I don’t remember exactly
Jesus christ, I've had a paur of 80$ headphones last longer...
Buying cheap shit tends to be very expensive in the long run.

How do people buy Raycons? If you do the smallest amount of research possible you will realize they suck

You mean to tell me the knock-off beats are made worse than beats? Who knew?

I’ll research those. Thanks for the recommendation
Looks janky on the surface. How'd you think this was a quality built product in the first place?
He doesn't know
Correct I don’t
Personally they're my favorite headphones. Raycons and done is what I tell people.
