Apple's lawyers argued that an angry customer "omits details" about a so-called "walk" where condensation built up in his AirPods Max, and that moisture in the company's flagship headphones is simply "more noticeable" than in competitors' models.
I’ve had some Bose Quiet Comfort (I think maybe it was the very first model, but might be the 2nd) for over a decade, with tons of use (for a while I did software development in the middle of a Trading Floor, think highly intellectual focus requiring work in the middle of a fishmonger’s market) and had to use those things all the time.
They’re all scratched on the outside by now (from going in and out of a backpack) and the ear cups were replaced twice.
Similar experiences with my Quiet Comforts II. I’m not using the shell it comes with, so it’s buffed a little, and had to replace the earcaps twice just because they get worn down in my backpack, but they work absolutely perfect.
Sure, the battery life isn’t as great as it was when I bought them in 2017 but for single-day usage they’re fine and I just give it a small micro-usb-powered pep-talk every night to use them the next day.
From your comment I think mine might be the QC 1, as mine just use normal AAA batteries and the battery life of mine can be “refreshed” by buying new rechargeable batteries ;)

Still work fine.
Best £250 I ever spent.
