    Airpods 2 loose hinge

    Just got my first ever airpods (2nd gen). Out of the box, the hinge feels a bit loose and whether the lid is closed or open it is possible to move it left and right and it makes a creaking sound. When the lid is closed it also makes creaking noises while wiping down the case with microfiber...

    AirPods 1 vs AirPods Pro · Talk Time Battery Life

    I have a pair of the 1st Generation AirPods. I love them but often times the battery dies when on a call of an hour or more. I'm seeing that the AirPod Pros are advertised to offer longer talk time on a charge but I'm curious what the reality is. What is the actual talk time you guys are...

    Apple Told Me AirPods Pro Includes Wireless Charging Mat

    I needed to share this screenshot because I know for a fact that the AirPods Pro DO NOT come with a wireless charging mat. Apple Support Twitter is wild.

    I know I’m a little (a lot) late to the party, but I have a question about AirPods

    I first got AirPods when the 2nd generation first came out. I was so excited when I got them, they were everything I ever wished for. Perfect for soccer game warmups, for a quick listen, or when I’m on the train on the way to work. Now the problem was that they would be loose in my ear, more...

    AirPods Battery: Remaining percent reported incorrectly?

    I am sure many MacRumors forum members understand that lithium ion batteries degrade over time. Those of us with AirPods I feel are acutely aware of this. And then there is of course the issue of one AirPod draining significantly faster than the other. I was under the impression that I have been...

    Sweat and water resistance needs to be number one

    I feel safe taking my Apple Watch in the rain I feel safe using my iPhone in the rain yet the one thing that I don’t feel safe about are the Apple AirPods. This is ironic since AirPods will see more of the outside then the phone itself, i’ll be subject to more sweat than the watch and phone...

    Other iPhone, Spotify EQ and EarPods.

    Hey, I listen to music on Spotify a lot and recently started messing with the built in EQ inside the app. I'm just curious which EQ preset you prefer when using EarPods or AirPods? Do you set your own? No EQ at all? I tend to switch between Rock and Electronic preset.

    AirPods are quiet- I’ve tried every method to clean them

    My left AirPod has been quiet for a while now. The first time this happened the air sucking method worked great and I was able to fix it no problem. So this time I tried that again, with no luck. I tried qtips, sharper qtips, sucking harder, clothes, blue tack, everything imaginable. Does...

    AirPods Not Respecting Volume Limit

    I've seen a couple of threads here and on Reddit about 2nd generation AirPods unpausing at full volume, but I was wondering if anyone has found a way to make it so they respect your volume limit? I have my iPhone limited to 50% volume which works fine most of the time, but whenever I do run into...

    Earrings Hitting Mic on AirPods

    Wonder if anyone else has this problem. When I'm walking my earrings are always hitting the mic part of the AirPod (or the little metal ring on the bottom). It's kind of annoying. Is there any solution to make them stop?

    Audio output to AirPods and headphones

    Hello! I'm considering purchasing AirPods and a scenario popped in my head. When my wife and I travel, we like to watch movies on our Mac, and use a headphone splitter. If one of us was wearing AirPods, would it be possible we could both hear the audio, even if one of us had plugged in...

    AirPods: which silicone buds to get for running?

    Hi everyone. I bought the new AirPods and they fit perfectly when biking and walking. But today I took them out for a run, and at first I found I had to push them back in every 3 minutes or so due to the velocity of each footstep rocking them slightly loose. Later when I started to sweat it...
