Is AppleCare+ worth it just for AirPods battery wear?
From my previous experiences with AirPods and other, smaller consumer electronics with built-in, non-replaceable batteries, I know that the battery of AirPods will see a significant dip or even become almost unusable in the 2nd to 3rd year after purchase if I use them every day. My question...- ApplesAreSweet&Sour

Airpods charging unevenly
I've been through two pairs of Airpods. Both of them charge inconsistently. Who else has had problems with their Airpods showing two different charges? One will be at 100% the other is at 9%.- theramajor

My Airpods 3 experience- first impression
i figured i would summarize some of the advantages and disadvantages Ive experienced. This might be a much better solution, if people could do the same, instead of just writing “Airpods x is better”. Of course, using them for a longer time would bring about a more detailed review, but i still... -
Transparency Mode vs native passive transparency on regular Airpods
For those that have used/own both, how does transparency mode compare to the passive transparency on the regular Airpods? I’m debating between getting the Airpod Pro or the Airpod 3 and unsure about this. Long story short, I have a baby and need to be able to hear my surroundings. The problem... -
Insanely conflicted about AirPods 3
Hi friends! So, the new AirPods look pretty great. I’ve had gen 1 since I could get my hands on em, and I’ve wanted Pros since launch for ANC/better sound quality. However: firstly, I’m holding out for stemless Pros, which don’t seem like they’ll be out for a while; secondly, we’re living in... -

I have 2 sets of Airpods, 1st gen. My wife was using one pair and me the other. After a few months of usage, my right airpod started to lose charge (goes dead) after about 30 seconds of use.

AirPods Pro audio cutting out randomly
Good evening everyone, I have a problem with the AirPods Pro. Generally, when I use them on the street and totally randomly the sound is lost/cut off for a few seconds, as if it's interference.

Apple Music Apple Music Free for 6 Months Offer with AirPods — Old Purchase

Do you think Airpods Pro 2 will eliminate the need for Apple Watch when it comes to health?
Hi all I am currently considering buying an AW because of how its marketed as being useful for your health, etc. Then, I remember many articles saying APP 2nd gen will also focus on health. Does this mean I am better off waiting for the APP? Personally I have never been a watch-wearing... -

AirPods Max fizzle out on Mac
Does anyone else have an issue with their AirPods Max where they "fizzle out" when connected to a Mac? By fizzle out, they'll be fine then you'll encounter some skipping (almost as if you are getting too far way). It gets worse and worse until they ultimately just stop playing.

AirPods Pro are faulty when handling their microphones. Not only does it effect call quality, but also dictation, Siri, and voice memos.
