Every pair of earphones breaks. It is a fragile device with many intricate components, these components get jostled, and with time they wear down, leading to unpreventable malfunctions. Here are several reasons why your earphones keep breaking. One is rolling the cord over- cord lengths for earphones can be very long, hence the desire to roll them. Another is letting the cord to dangle- it is a great risk to let the cord dangle from a desk edge, either while in use or when resting. The other is forgetting the earphones are still on your head-you can sink into hours of your gaming session, and soon as its end, you get the sudden urge to rush to the restroom not remembering to take off your earphones first. As a result, you snap the earphone, which puts tension to the internal wires together with their connection points. The damage is cumulative as you continue with this habit and eventually, the earphones wires break.
