Anything properly taken care of should last quite some time, with the exception of QC issues.

It doesn't bother me, but then again I don't really use the M3's earbuds.  I have a lot of various Monks and have yet to see any issue with damage, so while they may not look to have great build quality I have no complaints so far.  But back on track with KZ, I'd be curious to see what they'd do with an earbud.

VE monk died on me cos I accidentally step on the bud. I'm extremely careless. Was thinking to buy it again but why not try new brand heh. But VE monk actually is pretty tough against twist and turn.

The earbud format due to design is not as proficient at bass production due to a lack of seal created.  It also doesn't isolate the way an IEM can.  IEMs aren't limited in the same way both in bass production and isolation.
