Worried about V3 Pro joints breaking - preventive steps?

Question

Recently bought the Razer Blackshark V3 Pro. Previously had the V2 which spontaneously fell apart at its hinges (which I can see was a widespread issue).I like other aspects of this headset and having returned various other models from other manufacturers due to similar defects, I'm kind of at the point where I want to see if I can just secure it myself.I say this because the joints look very similar to the V2 and I haven't got a lot of faith in them, albeit the lower sections do swivel now which hopefully reduces the chance of breakage.Any ideas on how to approach this? I thought about getting some electrical tape and just running a few layers over the joints to reinforce them.Alternatively if a Razer rep can reassure me that this fault has been specifically and reliably addressed in the V3 that would be much appreciated.

Bro, it’s razer. They’ll never admit there was an issue with the earlier blacksharks.But oh it was, the plastics were terrible. Im on my second pair, and both joints are broken on these too. I fixed them with some zipties. Not buying another pair.One could hope razer learnt something, and actually reinforced the joints.I loved these headsets cuz they were great for my planet sized head. if they only stopped breaking...
