We cracked open the new AirPods 5 expecting the same disposable trash Apple has sold for the last 10 years. They’re still bad, but these AirPods may be the first that can actually live longer than their batteries.

The case is a disaster and you won’t find any parts or repair manuals from Apple. But the earbuds themselves are an ever-so-slight improvement over previous models. Read more in our full blog.

The iPhone Duo looks to be an impressive bit of engineering, but we have doubts about its repairability.

From hard-to-replace screens to the sound of dust crunching inside the hinges, foldable phones face some unique challenges. Unfortunately it’s been hard to actually fix them. We’d love to see a foldable from Apple that’s truly repairable. But we’re skeptical the Duo will be a step in the right direction.
