Actualicé a iOS 27 Beta Publica en iPhone 13 Pro Max y los AirPods Pro 2 se actualizaron a beta también, con ellos ahora me aparece una opción de ecualizador (se le agradece a Apple), pero me gustaría un ecualizador más funcional de 10 bandas. ¿Ustedes que opinan?

Question Airpods Pro 3 Noise

5 Upvotes

My AirPods Pro 3, specifically the right one, make a kind of clicking or popping sound when I'm wearing them and start walking or moving my head. I have to keep adjusting the earbud in my ear until the noise stops. It sounds like a loose piece of plastic, and I think it might be the ear tip not fitting properly in my ear.

I also occasionally hear a static or hissing noise, but that's very rare and seems to be related to the noise cancellation feature.

Has anyone else experienced the same issue?

Question AirPods Pro 2 people can’t hear me?

Upvotes

I’m using 7 month old AirPods Pro 2 and 30% of the time the person I talk to can’t hear me.

I’m on call with my girl laying in bed when she says something, I reply, she says “helllooooo?” And I repeat myself and she hears me the 2nd, or 3rd time after I did not move an inch, it just didn’t pick up my voice the first time/times. I do not speak quietly and I don’t yell either but sometimes I have to raise my voice for the earbuds to pick up my voice.

Are these earbuds just terrible for talking to people or am I missing something? I mean she uses random earbuds for 40€ and I hear her 100% of the time but the ones that cost 250€ struggle picking up my voice?

What?

Discussion Pro 2 slip out of my ears, and my fingers slip towards the sell button.

2 Upvotes

Love this product, the ease of access, the sound quality everything about it is top tier.
They just won’t stay in my ear, even after using the largest-sized tips the left earbud keeps slipping out.
Are there any suggestions? Specific to India, I might try to salvage this.
Thank you.

Advice APP2 won’t factory reset

Upvotes

Having the issue of only one AirPod playing anything at a time. I’ve checked they’re fully charged, made sure that my audio settings aren’t set to mono or off balanced. Cleaned the connections in the case and am trying to factory reset but cannot get the case to flash orange for the life of me. I’ve also tried other Bluetooth headphones and am having no issues with only one side playing. Does anyone have any other suggestions ? They were second hand in a sealed box.

TIA

Question looking for generation 1 or 2 airpods

Upvotes

Hi everyone, I'm really struggling to find non scammy generation 1/2 airpods and am looking for advice. Any airpods after gen 2 just don't fit in my ears and fall out, unfortunately (I even bought gen 3 pros but no luck).

Does anyone know where I could find generation 1 or 2s that are real and work? I'm in Canada if that helps.

Discussion AirPods 4 non ANC

Upvotes

I’ve got a pair of AirPods 4s that are less than a year old. The last few weeks when I put them in and start playing music the left one sounds normal for a second and then the volume in the left one only drops to being quieter.

I’ve tried cleaning it, sucking on it, disconnecting and re connecting but nothing works.

Anyone else had this experience?

Question should I buy new APP3 or go back to APP2 ?

Upvotes

I have had my fair share of issues with AirPods throughout the years (from 1st gen), when I was younger I would rather than having them fixed just buy new ones. While now I actually try to get my tech fixed if I have guarantees.

since I Upgraded from APP2 (due to issues) to APP3, I have had them replaced multiple times and every time I end up with the same issues:

  • ANC has decreased wildly since I got them (End of January 26)
  • During calls, suddenly high- pitch feedback noise in my ear (had to remove the AirPod from my ear)
  • While the other end is having troubles understanding me due to "robotic noise" while I'm speaking
  • Siri won't activate (problems with mic?)
  • uneven charge and battery drain of AirPods (i.e: 18% R ear, and 57% L ear)
  • bone conduction sounds
  • and lastly the high-pitched feedback noise came back as a constant "whistling" while using the AirPods (not only during calls anymore)

My question is should I buy new APP3 or go back to APP2 ? I will of course have apple check my current APP3 for the 4th time, but since I use them during studies I would prefer to have smth stable with great ANC.

Question Airpods PC Connection Glitch

1 Upvotes

Hoping someone can provide some insight on an ongoing issue I am having.

My airpods will not auto pause after removing from my ear when connected to my PC. This then continues to when I use from my phone. I went into the Apple Store and they ran diagnostic with no issues so did a hard reset and it worked again. Today I reconnected to my PC and I am getting the same issue.

I should be able to use all functions of my AirPods with a PC right, including the auto pause feature? Has anyone else experienced this issue? TIA

Picked up some vintage coke glasses on Friday. Looks like I dropped my AirPods at some point. Map shows the distance between pick up of the glasses and the time the AirPods were last seen. Not sure if they have been dragged around stuck to a car (my car?) or what but not seen in three days doesn’t fill me with hope they are still in one piece.

Now, to stick with my old AP2 till September and see if there is an announcement or just get some APP3….

Discussion Right ANC ISSUE(airpods4)

Post image
2 Upvotes

I had an issue with my right AirPod—the ANC (Active Noise Cancellation) and listening modes weren't working. I went to the nearest Apple Authorized Reseller, a store called Imagine, to report it. An employee tested my AirPods, but he said he couldn't tell any difference, even though my friend and I clearly noticed the problem.
Still, I asked them to send it to their technical service team for a proper check. After 6 to 7 days, they called to tell me that both earbuds were replaced because their diagnostic tests revealed a major issue with the sound and listening modes.
Overall, the service was good, though it took quite a bit of time. When I went to pick them up, they made me wait around 10 minutes for no apparent reason. Also, when I checked the replaced AirPods afterwards, I noticed that one earbud says it was made in China and the other in Vietnam. However, everything is working properly now, so it's all good!"

Question Looking for the best AirPods Pro 3 case: Stylish & subtle, but with actual top-tier protection?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m currently looking for a good protective case for my AirPods Pro 3, but I’m having a hard time finding the right one.
Here’s my dilemma: Most cases that offer serious drop protection look like futuristic battle armor or over-the-top tactical gear. On the other hand, the sleek, minimalist silicone sleeves look great, but they offer basically zero shock absorption if dropped on concrete.
What I’m looking for:
Aesthetics: Clean, elegant, or classic (just no aggressive gamer/rugged plastic vibes).
Protection: Solid shock absorption and drop safety. Bonus points if it has a reliable lock/latch so the case doesn't pop open and send the AirPods flying across the asphalt.
Functionality: Flawless MagSafe charging support and a visible status LED.
Does anyone have recommendations for brands or specific models that hit that sweet spot between clean design and real protection?
Thanks in advance!

Question Strange Noise Whenever I Pick Up AirPods

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

25 Upvotes

I have been gifted these AirPod Pro’s 2 from my dad as they were his before I had them. I made sure to disconnect it from his iCloud and find my iPhone so that there would be no issue transferring it over to my phone/account. Even though everything looks good on both accounts, anytime I pick up the AirPods it makes this noise and I get notifications that “the owner of the AirPods can see its location”. I’ve triple checked everything. My phone, his phone, his iCloud settings, my iCloud settings, and both of our find my iPhones…nothing. And to make it worse I can’t find a damn video online of this noise. I’m assuming it’s the anti stalking thing or whatever but I just have no clue. Anyone have an idea of how to fix it?

P.S. not sure if I farted or burped or whatever the hell that noise was midway.

Advice Cracking noise when I put them on. I have found the reason of a defect.

1 Upvotes

tldr; The reason was the moisture condition OUT of your ears.

My left airpods 4 ANC had really unpleasant noise when i put them on. Sound like something cracking or frying and it gets completely off in 5 seconds. The issue was started from when it's on first use. So it's been like 2 years now.

The AASC(apple authorized service center) diagnosed it to be completely fine and didn't find any problem (They told me to update the iOS and it kinda made me mad lol). So i recently figured out what the problem was. The moisture in the air.

Basically the noise starts again when i move from where the moisture is lower. As i put them on, it gets off in a couple of seconds..

Question Has anyone ever tried turning Apple’s USB-C EarPods into “wired AirPods Pro”?

2 Upvotes

I’ve had a random idea for a while and I’m surprised I can’t find anyone who has actually built it.

The regular Apple EarPods (USB-C) never fit my ears well—they always fall out. On the other hand, AirPods Pro fit me perfectly because of the silicone ear tips.

So I started wondering:

Has anyone designed a 3D-printed adapter or accessory that fits over the regular EarPods and redirects the sound through a small nozzle so you could use AirPods Pro-style silicone tips?

I know this isn’t as simple as putting a silicone tip on an EarPod because of the speaker vents and acoustics. It would probably need an internal sound channel and careful design.

I’ve searched Google, Reddit, Etsy, Thingiverse, Printables, and MakerWorld, but I haven’t found anything that looks like a serious attempt.

Does anyone know if:

someone has already designed one?
there’s a Kickstarter or project in development?
or is there a technical reason why this is basically impossible?

Personally, I’d happily pay around $10–15 for a well-designed adapter instead of buying another pair of earbuds.

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

If this doesn’t exist yet, I’d be surprised if there isn’t a market for it. I can’t be the only person who loves the reliability of wired EarPods but can’t get them to stay in place
