Airpods on an old iPhone 6

[RetiredInFl]

I'm sure this will get lost in the explosion of "what color case are you getting for your iPhone 11" threads (I'm getting black ) but I just sold my iPhone Xs which got a couple hours of Airpod use without issue and temporarily paired them with my old temporary iPhone 6+ till my 11 comes in. After 30 minutes both airpods were DEAD.

Does this have something to do with the iPhone 6 bluetooth version? The airpods are only a month old and were fine until I switched to the 6 yesterday.

Just to let you know that I have the 2nd generation Airpods and they worked perfectly with my iPhone 6 (I have just sold it, its time to buy the iPhone 11 Pro )

Hmmm, interesting because mine are also 2nd gen (and maybe 2 mos old). Maybe they weren't charged (although they were in the charger for 2 days and the LED was green). Will give it another shot tomorrow.
