I love how there is an advert and Amazon link for these exact earbuds in the article.
$20 off, worth the potential hearing loss?
What I find particularly interesting is that it’s an ad they’re serving directly from their own infrastructure - ublock isn’t blocking it as an ad.
Oh yeah, I didn’t think about that.
I’m running uBlock Origin as well and I have a Pi-Hole running on my network.
Guessing they chose to advertise it and made it part of the article.
It’s the best deal you would hear.
Key Takeaways
Samsung’s Galaxy Buds FE are known for their affordability, high-quality audio, comfort, touch controls, and water resistance.
Wouldn’t want the reader to think the earbuds are all that bad

I have been waiting for a story like this, it was always a little fear in the back of my mind while using wireless earbuds.
We’ve had lithium based true wireless earbuds for nearly 10 years now according to my quick internet search, and the popularity of them has skyrocketed to millions of users. 10 years, millions of devices, and one finally catches fire? Genuinely I’m just confused by what you mean you’ve been waiting for a story like this.
People have little fears about lots of unlikely scenarios, it’s not that deep.
We’ve had wired earbuds for longer than wireless ones, I’ve yet to read a story about one exploding into someone’s ears.
I didn’t until now. I usually just think about some battery going solar while I’m sleeping.
Same here. 😬
I really feel for them.
Samsung’s statement said that it wasn’t their fault and that external factors were solely responsible for this happening. What external factors would cause this?
Maybe the user was hezbollah

The article reports that they were only used with the charge they came with.
I wish Samsung would clarify. I bought the exact same ones for my girlfriend.

i once suffered from a punctured lung
and later a fire-ant bit my tongue,
but neither gave me as much pain
or drove me as batshit insane
as did plying my custom to shitty samsung.
