All that and they didn’t give one example of wireless earbuds that have user swappable batteries.

I wish, my problem is those doohickeys on the end there hurt my ears, and the only half-decent company that isn't a walmart airpod knockoff that also isn't skullcandy shaped like those is airpods themselves. Can ANYONE good please make earbuds that don't have the buttplug on them?

I don't know if Xiaomi could be considered good but their buds 4 lite are very pleasant to wear. No noise cancelation and relatively low volume tho, but these are the only down sides IMO.

The alternative is getting custom made othoplastics. These are the absolute banger for people with weird ear canals.
