V-moda headphones saga part 2: sent back again for repair

June 30th, 2008 SkyHorse

Just as my previous post reviewing the v-moda headphones for the iPhone started to get some hits I discover early in the morning that they stopped working, again.

They behaved exactly as I predicted by breaking down 2 months after I got them. This time it cost £5.10 to send them back with international “Signed for”.

The stats:
Number of times sent back: 2
Number of days with a working pair: 151
Number of days without a working pair: 56

TCO so far: £80.20 and they’re worth every penny.

June 1st, 2008 SkyHorse Web 2.0 has some known idiosyncrasies such as the cartoonish "Beta" logo or the Star Wars like acronyms (see the Web2.0 vs StarWars quiz). A not so known fact is the amount of companies using Green and Grey as their colours: See my point?Tags: design, web-2.0
