Hiya, just bought a new sound bar for my TV. And with it, as expected, came this "Register your product" pamphlet, and had me wondering how many actually register their products? I've personally never done this before, as in my country we have 2 years of warranty on everything we buy, so not really ever felt the need for registering products. But I am curious, do you register your products? Should I?

Yeah, if a company forces me to do so (Razer, JBL). Most companies don't require registration for warranty, at least in my country. All you need is the original invoice. When you want to claim a warranty, you need to fill out a form on that company's website which asks for your details like name, phone number, email, and physical address, alongside the original invoice. That's it, no prior registration required.

Jbl forced you to? I just bought a Jbl soundbar and wasn't forced to sign anything?

I bought JBL earbuds and didn't register my product on their website as most companies don't require it so I basically ignored that. After 7-8 months of usage one bud was discharging quicker than the other one so I tried to claim warranty but they refused, they said that my product isn't registered in their system. They told me to register the product first then apply for a warranty claim.

Ahh I see, that is unfortunate, hope you got it resolved 🌻

Yeah, after registering the product I claimed the warranty.
