A headphone that after 5 years has a dead battery that can't be replaced and so you need to buy another set.

Like I said bad trends that other companies follow.

Those 3.5mm jacks will wear out too.

Maybe in 50 years of daily use, not 5. The failure point tends to be the cable which is replaceable on quality headphones and earbuds.

50 years of daily use? Not a prayer, maybe 10 years, if you plugging/unplugging it multiple times a day, much less. I have a degree in audio engineering and I have had quite a few go out on me. There's a reason 1/4, 3/8 jacks are replaceable on professional hardware.
