I’m trying to find a pair between 100-200$,decent sound, a pair that will last, and optionally a pair which aren’t a total pain to repair. Fairbuds are my first choice but they’ve not available in my region so what are my other options?

I have a pair of Jabra Elite 4 Active. $80 and the audio quality is good, battery life is good, USB-C charging, no repairability(kind of a dream for earbuds), and the ambient noise cancelling is good except in wind(gets distorted), the passthrough is good as well. The interface for single or dual earbuds works for my needs and the equalizer is adequately tunable to suit my needs. They aren’t an audiophile’s dream, but wireless earbuds aren’t what an audiophile needs.
I have had them over a year and they have absolutely met my needs for wireless earbuds. I would only replace them for better audio quality(buds always lack a clean bass), but the jump in price for better audio does not make sense to me. The price v performance is great and I feel that spending more gets into diminishing returns for the category.
If you want better, you want headphones and not earbuds or have money to burn.
