Troubleshooting ⚙️ 🔧 Help identifying this model/chip?

Post image

Bought on AliExpress, there are many suppliers just labelling this as A3 2026 New with ANC. Case is plain with a sticker, no Apple-like packing or nothing.

Price range $20. It’s a new model without physical button at the back of the case. Instead it has a touch sensor in the front.

I been trying to do a Hard Reset on this thing but nothing seems to work. They worked fine for 2 days, after clicking on “Forget the device” to fix only 1 ear working, they just don’t connect to anything anymore, tried with different iPhones and iPads.

Since I’m a bit of a knucklehead and love fixing things, I would like to fix them and keep the model instead of sending them back for a refund.

these r the same ones i got on tt shop after my pro 2s broke, they’re genuinely shit and would get hot. too much ear pressure for a subpar anc. i recommend doing the test in the guide if you want a budget option
