I've had 2 sets of AirPods die because of the batteries aging and losing their ability to hold a charge. Though to be fair, their microphones failed much earlier then their batteries, and noise cancelling gets some really annoying failure modes when the microphone has issues. I should have replaced them sooner. I also should find a brand that doesn't have consistent manufacturing quality issues...

microphones have failed for me in the past as well, though to be fair, apple gave me a free repair for one issue on their end.
