Wikipedia: Earphones
Earphones or, more recently, earbuds are very small headphones that are fitted directly in the outer ear, facing but not inserted in the ear canal. Earphones are portable and convenient, but many people consider them uncomfortable. They provide hardly any acoustic isolation and leave room for ambient noise to seep in; users may compensate by turning up the volume, which, in a noisy environment, increases the risk of hearing loss.

If I don’t like my earbuds, do I still call them earbuds? Or do I call them earenemies?

When your ear buds suddenly break and no longer work, do they become your ear enemies?

I’ve never liked the term “earbuds” because not once have they stayed secure in my ears. Should be called earenemies as far as I’m concerned…
