They have a 1/10 from iFixit on the repairability score.

Not their only goal btw. Besides repairability, they also source from sustainable mines/suppliers (so far as reasonably possible, given that virtually nobody else creates demand for such a thing) with normal wages and such. And recycling is a thing but I'm less read up on what they do there.

I still agree that they made a product nobody asked for just so they could get rid of the 3.5mm jack in their latest smartphone, until today that is (first time I see someone ask for fair earbuds!), but I do want to give them credit for their overall mission beyond just repairability.

From what I've heard from the small android phone project... No OEM even has new base designs that include a 3.5mm jack.
Are there wireless eaebuds with a better score? I imagine the form factor is quite limiting.
