Unreliable recharging is why I gave up on Bluetooth headphones, too! Had it happen with four separate pairs of AirPods in my house: OG AirPods, my warranty replacement, and my partner's AirPods Pro (and their warranty replacement). I find nothing more frustrating than heading out on a run in the morning and discovering that one or both of my buds has near-zero charge, after carefully placing them in a case the previous day.
I've been using a pair of Tin T2 Pro IEMs ever since. Almost 5 years with the same IEMs, I think I've gone through 4 cable replacements. But the replacement cables were like $5 and the latest $10 one seems likely to last much longer since it's a nice braided cable.
Of course, I'm stuck on my Pixel 4a to keep the headphone jack. But it works well enough that I honestly have no desire to upgrade. I just wish I could still get OS security updates.
