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

    Yeah, a structural weakness that's also load bearing. Big brain design.

    Also like the folding mechanism would get loose over time. I'd rather just not have them, but most decent headphone are folding ones.
