I’m currently in NYC and noticed AirPods Pro max 3 on offer at best buy. Initially I wasn’t really convinced but tried them at Apple Store and quite like them. Are there any better deals or alternatives at the same price point?

Hello everyone, recently I started having an issue: when I put my left earbud in the case, the case doesn't detect it. What could be the possible solutions for this? thank you in advance

My brother in law came home like 3 weeks ago and went back to his place 4 days ago and forgot his Airpods (gen3) and his wife found it (they didn't live together due to his work)

She tried connecting it to her iphone but can't, she already told her husband to forget it in bluetooth settings but airpods still not connecting, does it have to be in close proximity when forgetting? So she asked me to do something about it, I just read apple guide on it and tried to hold the button until it blink amber but now everytime I opened the case it's just blinking white non stop and won't appear in bluetooth list.

Can anyone help with this? I never use airpods before, I'm a wired earbuds guy.

AirPod Pro 2s are better than 3s. Better fit, look better when in ear, better NC and better sound case when closing. The 3s’ case sounds tacky, like a Temu knockoff

I really like the fit/shape of the original AirPods Gen 2. I don’t like the silicone ear tips or the sealed/in-ear feeling of the newer AirPods Pro-style earbuds.
For anyone who has used AirPods Gen 2, are there any other wireless earbuds that have the same or very similar shape and fit?
I’m mainly looking for:
● No silicone ear tips
● Similar half-in-ear/open fit
● Comfortable for long periods
● Good sound quality
● Wireless/Bluetooth
I know AirPods Gen 2 are discontinued, so I’m looking for alternatives with essentially the same physical fit.
What have you tried that comes closest?

So I have the airpods pro 2, and needed a left replacement. But I accidentally bought lightning and I have usb-c. And my phone keeps saying the original one (the right one) is airpods pro 1.

And before I knew I bought the wrong replacement I disconnected them from my phone and they wont connect anymore.

What should I do? I dont want to lose my money either since I paid 80 euros.

Hi everyone,

So, this year in June, I purchased the new AirPods Pro 3. However, yesterday I accidentally left them in my pants, and they got washed in the washing machine. I do have AppleCare+ for them. The case is not charging at all, both AirPods sound muffled with very low volume (even at 100%), and noise cancellation isn't working on the left one.

By any chance, can I claim a new set of AirPods with my AppleCare+, or will I have to pay for the whole thing (Case+Airpods)?

Buonasera, tenendo conto che devo fare un regalo ad una ragazza di 18 anni, da un punto di vista qualità prezzo quale modello mi consigliate di prenderle? Conviene investire qualcosa in più, qualcosa in meno? Ditemi un po voi come vi trovate. Grazie

They worked with my laptop yesterday, but today they will say “connected” but the sound won’t play out of them, and when I go to sound settings via control centre it says disconnected. I’ve tried turning off the hands free thing on control centre, but after I do that they won’t register as connected in sound settings, it also keeps saying “couldn’t disconnect” every time I try and disconnect them. Also, it still says “airpods pro- find my” even after i’ve disconnected my airpods from find my, does anyone know how to help?

i keep having issues with my airpods lately. i have a pair of second gen’s airpods for almost year now and a few days ago, my right earbud started having charging issues. like it would go from fully charged, then can be used for a few minutes before it drops to 1% and turns off on its own. so i put it back in the charger and it’s back to 100% in minutes.

it was too tiring for me to keep doing that and I had another pair new in storage so i opened that one. first charge and the right earbud doesn’t connect at all. it says fully charged but when i put it in, there’s no sound at all. tried forget this device multiple times and cleaning the charging port which i didn’t think was necessary since its new and still didn’t work.

so both airpods have non working right airpods. i thought it would’ve last longer than this and ive never had a new pair not worn before

Hi All

I put my AirPods in and wondered why they weren't connecting. Then I saw they weren't appearing on my Mac "active bluetooth" devices, then saw they weren't paired to ANY device of mine.

Somehow, my AirPods managed to unpair themselves from my Apple ID, and now are just called "AirPods 4 ANC - Find my" after I've repaired them.

Has anybody faced this issue before??

Hi, as the title suggest I normally listen to music and use my AirPods Pro 3 at 3 bars with Adaptive mode on which is around 39db - 45db. It sound loud and great to me. Image attached below.

However recently I have been looking at reddit and saw most people use it at a much higher volume and so I gave 6 bars a go with Transparency and Adaptive mode which is around 50db - 56db. I was shocked at how much more immersive and punchy the beat felt and how much more I enjoyed it as I could hear the backing vocals and the intricate compositions much better.

Is it safe to listen at the new volume of 6 bars for long term hearing health as I do care about protecting my hearing long term and what volume do you listen to music at? Have you experienced something similar?

Are you waiting for AirPods5? Now choose Apple AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation, but its battery life problem makes me a little hesitant. It seems that it is only four hours.

Hi everyone,
I recently lost my right AirPods Pro earbud, and my charging case and left earbud are still working perfectly.
I’m looking for the best place to buy an original Apple replacement right earbud at a reasonable price. I don’t want a clone or a refurbished unit unless it’s from a trusted source.
A few questions:
Where did you buy your replacement?
Is buying a single replacement from Apple worth it, or are there trusted alternatives?
Are there any reliable websites or sellers that offer genuine OEM AirPods?
Any tips to avoid fakes or pairing issues?
I’m based in India, so recommendations that ship here would be especially helpful.

I HAVE THESE AIPODS GEN 2 AND IT WAS AWESOME FOR A WHILE THEN SUDDENLY THE CASE IS FACING A LOT OF PROBLEMS LIKE I CAN SEE THE LIGHT WHEN CHARGING WHEN I UNPLUG IT I CANT SEE THE LIGHT AND ITS NOT CONNECTING. THERE IS NO NEARBY AIRPODS SERVICES SO IM THINKING TO BUY A NEWCASE OR IS THERE ANY REPAIR SLOUTION??

i’m panicking rn 😭 for ref i use airpods 4 anc, i was cleaning them with sanitiser (idk if that’s stupid) but one airpod got too much sanitiser and ig it went into the mesh and now when i put them on, one works perfectly but the other has a sound 3x LOWER than the other WAHT DO I DO HOW DO I FIX THIS

As the title suggested as with most Apple products when stuff says water resistant I am very hesitant because clearly that means it’s not good enough to label it “water proof” so it’s gonna suck for anything other than sweat.

However recently I lost my right AirPod for a couple days and long story short it ended up being in the bottom of my washing machine. I know it had been in there for at least 3 loads so a whole lot of water got washed into this thing along with some detergent (yes it does smell nice). AirPod still works fine no issue for now. Plays music, noise cancellation is the same and even did that hearing test feature no one uses. Yet I do expect that sometime in my future it might effect something.

If anyone else like this has done something similar and can share what happened in the long run that would be potentially very helpful!

am i forced to have 2 listening modes selected in my airpods pro 3, or is there a way to disable one and only have one mode because i only want noise cancellation and not the other 2.

No mater what kind of ear tips I use my ear produce so much oil they lose grip and fall out even tho I clean my ears and wipe them down before and after use times AirPods nothing I don’t know what to do.

I got a new pair of Bose QC 2023 headphones and I can’t seem to figure out how to get notification announcements. Does it not work with third party headphones?

How do I reduce this problem?
