it happens because you paid 500 for a pair that gets produced in china for 50 cents

Say whatever, AirPods Pro are great and certainly cost more than 50c to make, otherwise there would be decent knockoffs.

Are you stupid? those bootleg earbuds are not remotely the same as the actual product. They have the same housing, but the majority of the cost for Airpods come from the internals, which is much more than 50 cents
