-[* black] Insert wisdom here.
+[* black] First thing that catches our eye is adhesive. Maybe because of its wax lookalike signal red color but still — adhesive.
+[* black] Second thing is a button cell battery similar to the one we already saw in the AirPods Pro and the Galaxy Buds.
+ [* black] As long this is not a custom cell this might be a good sign regarding replaceability.
+[* black] To keep on going we need to disconnect the in-ear portion from the stem and it seems like that we're lucky once!
+ [* black] It seems like, that the fashionable red adhesive is supposed to glue this tiny press fit connector to its socket and to prevent it from accidentally disconnecting during a fall.
+ [* black] But with a lot of delicacy and without any heating or tearing we manage to maneuver our tweezers around the adhesive and to disconnect the flex cable. Hurray!
