Before buying any device online, I check through reviews on every site I can get reviews from.

If it is a mobile phone, I will check reviews on GSMArena and Nairaland threads dedicated to the phone.
If it any other device, I will check Nairaland threads and also Amazon and Aliexpress reviews.

Reading reviews are the best way to find faults that may not manifest on the device until 2+ months later.

However, I am currently experiencing a problem with a gadget I just bought; some earbuds.

I decided to go for what was touted as the best Earbuds under $50 in the market: The Edifier TW1s Pro.

I got it from Jumia for 13,599 naira. When It came down, the earbuds worked fine.

But there was one problem.

I could not hear anything once I clicked the dial button to make a call. I could not even hear the ringing tone that tells you whether the recipient's phone is ringing.

Here is a post describing in detail the process I went through to try make sure the problem was from the earbuds and not from my phones.

I tried everything. I tried three different phones.
I Googled the problem, but none of the results addressed that specific problem. I emailed their support, and after describing the problem, they just referred me back to Jumia for their warranty.

I returned the set I had and ordered another one.

It worked fine, and then the problem started again.

I have ordered another return, and I will get another model of earbuds.

I know you're reading to this point and saying the problem is from my phone, but if you think that, click on the link to the thread where I posted my troubleshooting process.

Another thing I noticed is that you cannot leave negative reviews on Jumia once you have ordered for the return of a product, so the reviews are skewed towards positive reviews only. Therefore, it is highly likely that someone else faced the same problem, returned the device, and could not leave a negative review to warn others of the possibility of such a fault.

I want to hear from you.

Have you ever bought a device that had a problem so unique that you could not find the answers on Google, and you could not see any one sharing the same problem on any reviews online.

Thank you.

I have ordered the return of the earbuds.

I wanted something that allowed me to make calls and I wanted something I could test and return if there was any faults unlike what you get when you buy from different shops.
