Should I replace the hinge on my broken XM5 or just let it go?

I feel really dumb for buying the XM5 3 years ago for the full $400, only for the left hinge to break only a year later, I didn't even use it that often and occurred while on my ears. I had opened it up to replace it but never bought a new hinge. If I do, will it just break again? Maybe I could sell it after fixing it? But that feels like a hassle and might get returned from a buyer. All I'm certain of is never buying sony or plastic headphones again.

My two cents - it's a hassle but it's worth it. Maybe you could look up for 3d printed replacements pieces with more strength

I have the same issue. The headphones are amazing but very brittle. I found a way to reinforce it with 3D printed hinges, haven't tried them yet (came here to see if there are any other options before trying them), but if you couldn't find anything else then I think it's worth considering:

If you want to sell then I think you should replace the hinges with genuine parts. If you'd like to keep them though then I think a 3D printed reinforcement is good enough.

i bought a replacement hinge but broke wires while trying to take the old one out. I returned it, and sold the headphones for dirt cheap.

NEVER buying Sony headphones again.
