Microsoft Surface Headphones: Top band snapped in half

Tue, 17 Dec 2024 16:20:38 -0700

It was during a normal usage and no brute force/abuse was applied. Just took it off my head. I guess it was 3 degrees Celsius outside and this is just plastics, so maybe that’s why it broke.

Anyway, could you please offer some advice on how best to repair these.

Thank you.

Microsoft Surface Headphones: Tips for disassembling the top band support on Surface Headphones?

Thu, 10 Oct 2024 09:33:46 -0700

So like many others, my headphones have snapped at the band after 13 months of near daily use (sadly, only a little after the warranty expired) and after browsing some solutions I think I'd like to 3D print a replica part and use that in place of the broken one.

There are a few guides out there for disassembling and fixing the Microsoft Surface Headphones 1st gen bands which I've noticed have black sliders that can be taken out, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to disassemble the Surface Headphones 2, which I think uses the same mechanism with a clear plastic.

One of the guides I'm looking at here appears to take out those black sliders using a credit card or screwdriver but I'm having trouble doing this without snapping the plastic itself, and was wondering if maybe that is the only way to go.

Here's an image of what my headphones look like at the moment:

If anyone has any tips for this, would greatly appreciate it!

Microsoft Surface Headphones: Surface Heaphones: Access the diaphragm and driver area

Wed, 25 Jan 2023 06:58:27 -0700

The surface headphones disassembly shows how to get to the motherboard and battery but how do I get to the driver and diaphragm part? My Zurface headphone's diaphragm got dented and I want to open it up to investigate further however can't find any screws to open on the earcup/driver area.
