We all use true wireless earbuds in our daily lives and while they sound awesome and are super convenient, sometimes you find yourself in an unexpected situation which needs solving ASAP! So, here’s some helpful tips to solve common issues you may encounter:
How to Replace Lost or Damaged Soundcore Components
We’ve all been there, you forget to pick up a charging case when leaving a coffee shop or an ear tip mysteriously vanishes one day… And then you can’t listen to music like you want to!
If you’ve lost or damaged your charging case, ear tips, ear wings, ear cushions, charging cable, AUX cable, or travel case, you can contact Soundcore Customer Support via email, call, or live chat to see if the item is in stock. If it’s available, you can choose to purchase a replacement.
This is what it costs to purchase each of the following replacement items:
-
$3 per pair of ear tips, ear wings, or ear hooks
-
$5 per pouch, bag, charging cable, or AUX cable
-
$8-10 per travel case or ear cushion for over-ear headphones
-
$10 per mic for G1/G3 gaming headphones
-
30% of the original (non-discounted) product MSRP in USD for a replacement charging case
The shipping cost for these items is as followed:
US - $3.50
UK - $15.50
CA - $13.50
(All prices are in US Dollars)
Unfortunately, if you’ve lost a single Soundcore earbud, it cannot be replaced. This is because the earbuds are not designed to be paired with additional earbuds, so even if a replacement were available, it would not pair with your remaining earbud.
