Honestly, I don't care about the problem itself that much. I mean, I'm used to constant problems with pretty much all audio-devices on my linux laptop (even when they work fine on Windows, which seriously makes me angry — when it was supposed to be the fucking year of linux on desktop?), my Elite 65t's are no better nor worse, I did use them on the laptop a couple of times and they worked somehow.

But the response is infuriating. I wouldn't really expect anything else from something like Xiaomi, but Jabra? Don't they care about their reputation at all? I mean, they could at least pretend they care. Refunding a single customer is cheap as fuck, even if he is not really in the right. Well, I don't know, but I suspect this thread may already cost them more than fucking $150 or whatever it is Jabra Elite 85t costs now.

However, to be completely honest, I'm not sure what my next wireless earbuds manufacturer should be. I bought 65t's a long time ago (obviously), and I'm pretty sure nothing could really compete back then, all things considered. I don't know about now.
