Yeah, let's introduce a major structural flaw and a point of failure to a perfectly sound design :agony-shrooms:

And for what?

"Foldable headphones are so convenient and portable when you're not using them!!"

YOU WEAR THEM AROUND YOUR NECK WHEN NOT USING THEM, DIPSHIT

These stupid hinges turn cheap headphones from durable and reliable backups to instant e-waste

Source: just had a pair of cheap bluetooth headphones crack at the hinges because it was slightly below freezing

    Once had the headphone jack break on me on a previous phone, been mainly using bluetooth outside ever since

    Have had hinged wired headphones break on me too, hate these things

      Depending on the phone I'd consider repairing, but also :anprim-pat:

        It was a phone that was cheap enough that the cost of repair would've been almost the same as the price I bought the phone for
