    Airpods (2nd Gen): Left Airpod doesn't connect until I put it back in the case and wear it again

    My left airpod (Airpods 2nd Gen) often doesn't connect with my devices (MBP 2015 & iPhone 7), until I take both my Airpods out, place them back in the case and wear them a second time. This is peculiar, because other than this my Airpods work perfectly. Once I re-insert them, there are no...

    Inconsistent Noise Cancellation? (AirPods Max)

    So I’ve had my AirPods Max for about two weeks now. Is it just me, or does the Noise Cancelling change in correlation to how your turn your head and the location of the sound source? Or is this normal? I’m on my second pair now (due to colour change) and I’m noticing this on both pairs. Does...
