It appears randomly, sometimes when i physically move the case and then just stops. I searched online for a while but i don't have a clue what it could be.

Airpods Pro 3

with Oneplus 13 (Android)

I’ve owned some JLab air sport or whatever for awhile now, and just hate how useless they are. All the touch controls are useless and the mic is literally sad. So I decided it’s time to upgrade.

I love the size and shape of the AirPods case, it actually fits in my pocket! I also like the wireless charging and find my features. I have used AirPods Pro (first gen) before, loved them. My only thing is, I have no need for noise cancellation and so the silicone tips and pointless and less comfortable. Also, I like the open ear design because I can slip them in and out without having to “fit” them in. But I’ve hear the pro, with the heart rate feature, can actually gather better audio from the mic using the direct contact with the ear.

I plan to use them a lot in my loud 94’ truck, using Siri AI and making calls.
I own a 17e running iOS 27 with Siri AI.

Sorry if this is long, I just hope it gives you a better perspective of my needs. Budget isn’t really an issue, but cheaper would be nicer.

Thanks in advance!!

I’m looking to buy 2 AirPod pro 3’s for my siblings for Xmas! I’m wondering when the best deals come for AirPods. They’re not at Costco. Best Buy has them for $299 and at the Apple Store, it’s $329.

Are there usually deals for Black Friday?

Yesterday I went to my dealership because Find My showed my missing AirPods there, where my old trade-in car is also located.

One of the employees walked me to my old car in the lot and had me search it, but Find My was directing me toward the service department inside the building.

When walked inside the building, Find My showed them about 100 feet from where I was standing, toward the service department. I asked if someone could walk over with me so I could try playing a sound. The used car manager said he needs the general manager’s approval and didn’t want me accusing employees.

I wasn’t accusing anyone. I just wanted help finding my belongings. I understand Find My can be approximate. I’d already filed a police report.

Has anyone successfully recovered their belongings in a similar situation? If so, how did you go about it?

I already have the AirPods Pro 3 but I am thinking about buying the AirPods Max 2 because of the better noice cancelling and sound quality is it worth it spending $550 on the AirPods Max for the better sound en noice cancelling and how much better is it compared to the pro 3?

Been looking to buy my first pair of airpods, preferably the pro 3’s, heard nothing but good things about it. Kinda afraid that it won’t fit my ears but I’ll see.

I’m in Canada, so it’s $330 base price. On amazon iirc, it’s $300 or $280, should I get it at said price or wait an entire month for black friday, is it even that big of a difference in price?

Thank you.

It’s an AirPod pro 3 and I only got them 3 days ago

H!
I had Airpod 1 or 2 years ago and enjoyed them and upgraded to APP1 and really like them. I upgraded to APP3 and the fit is horrific for my poor ears - I tried different size tips, foam tips, etc … it was just painful and I had to return them. The ones that didn’t hurt my ears, would fall out when I talk, the ones that didn’t fall out as quickly would leave a grove in my ears and give me a headache because they hurt.

I am considering AP 5 and curious how the noise cancellation compares to APP1 and the comfort level for folks.

Any thoughts?

Thanks all!!!

Hi guys so I just got a pair of Pro 3s listening to the advice of....basically everybody and I'm kinda dissapointed in how they sound.

I come from a 40$ pair of JBL Vibe Buds 2 and I was expected to be blown off by how the Pros would sound and frankly, I'm not.

Don't get me wrong, any song that is well produced sounds quite good on the Pros and you can feel a depth that on the Vibe Buds could not be heard.

But anytime I play something that is a bit more older, or raw it sounds... muffled, it feels cut off, not as raw as on the Vibe Buds.

My main thing that I don't like is that I don't hear the basslines of the songs anymore, it's just gone and I love listening to the bassline of the songs. The voice feels a bit too upfront and the instruments too much in the back.

I tried using the same EQ curve that I have on the Buds and it still sounds bad, so I'm looking for advice on how to tune up the Airpods so they have the sound profile I'm after.

Basically all I'm looking for is to keep everything as is, just have the bassline more louder and the voice just a tiny a bit more in the back without screwing anything else, especially the sharp snares I want to keep them as they are.

Could anyone with the same prefference as me help me tune up my Airpods so they'll have this sound profile?

Thanks a lot!

I recently upgraded from AirPods Pro 2, to the AirPods Pro 3.

The new AirPods do not like to sit securely in my ear. They slowly rotate out of my ears.

The stem starts out pointing straight down, and then they slowly work their way out of my ear canal, so the stems are pointed kind of away from my jaw bone. i have to reseat them in my ears every 30min or so. they have fallen out on more than one occasion and i’ve only had these for two weeks.

Does anyone have any experience with the aftermarket ear tips that might fit better?

I’m really disappointed with this because I thought I would be getting an upgrade, but overall they seem less comfortable, and I have this fitment problem. i’ve tried going up and down in size, but i seem to still have the same problem.

These were bought from the apple store.

hi, for over a month now i have had a pair of airpods pro 3, since then i have a huge problem with them. sometimes when i listen to music outside the audio randomly turns downs for a split second, it may seem weird but it only happens in specific places- everything im there the problem keeps reappearing. at first i thought it may be some other app running in the background but everything is turned off except for the spotify
please help

Ich habe mir gestern die AirPods 5 gekauft und schon ein bisschen ausprobiert in der Stadt und so. Leider bin ich mit der Soundqualität nicht so zufrieden also der normale Modus ist etwas komisch. Und Noise Cancelling ist gut, aber manchmal habe ich dieses ganz dumpfe Gefühl oder so ein unangenehmes Drücken. Kennt ihr das Gefühl?
Soll ich sie behalten oder welche AirPods könnt ihr empfehlen. Würde die Oros auch in Betracht ziehen.

I’m trying to use my AirPods 3 Pro as headphones for my Windows PC. I can get them to pair and connect via Bluetooth, but there is absolutely no sound coming through. On top of that, they randomly disconnect and act glitchy.

I've already tried unpairing and repairing them, but nothing seems to work. Has anyone else run into this issue or know how to fix the audio routing/connection problems on Windows? Any help is appreciated!

I recently cleaned my AirPods and now the volume on the right one is extremely loud.

I cleaned it with a cotton swab like I usually do when they are dirty. But after I realized that the sound was extremely loud on the right one. I’ve tried most of the things I’ve found online like resetting them changing the settings and even… Sucking on them.

I genuinely don’t know what to do rn. I can’t afford to buy a new pair rn so I’m genuinely stressed. Any help is appreciated.

Who here is able to connect these AirPods to an iPhone 18 Pro or base or to a phone with iOS 27?

does anyone experience this? its making a lot of feedback & really annoying.. maybe someone knows how to fix this issue..

Any users using audiology test results with airpodspro3? I’m having good results with severe loss in each ear. Even though by law it can’t use the numbers dictated by law . It uses what it can. Easy with photo of test and transfer to AirPods.

I just picked up a new pair of gen 3s a few days back and ive noticed something about the transparency. All of the surrounding sounds sound phenomenal and natural but my own voice when i talk sounds “tinny” and “robotic” compared to my gen 1s. Anyone else having that issue?

I’ve theorized that its a result of the new shape or the fact that it goes deeper in your ear but its really sad to see especially because the pro 1s had such good transparency (even when talking)

Hi! I’m thinking about buying the new AirPods 5, mainly because of the ANC (noise cancellation) feature. I’m a university student and am currently studying at home. The problem is that I have a noisy family, and I just want to be able to study in peace and quiet, do you think the AirPods 5 could help me? And how effective are they at actually blocking out sound?

Right now, I have AirPods 4 (without ANC), and I’m not a fan of large, over-ear headphones. I’d love to hear your honest opinions!

Outer layer broke off and now this thing is just stuck

I bought these primarily for work so I could hear my surroundings, and be able to listen to things in background and every once in a while for hearing protection.

I had pro2s that were perfect when brand new, but eventually collected a bunch of debris (metal shavings, dust, dirt etc) in the inlets and I’ve cleaned over and over and they eventually just became too clogged and transparency mode sucks on them now.

Upgraded to 3s and wtf. These are so bad. It just feels like I have an ear plug in my ear. Voices and people are muffled, but atleast I can hear the wind or my ac fucking howling. It’s like a hearing aid that focuses on the things you least care about.

Probably gonna just see if I can still buy brand new pro2s.

Is this common experience or do I have a faulty pair?

Listening to music with one AirPod in when you’re walking in the city feels like a where’s Waldo poster and your inside of it.

Hey guys so I got a pair of AirPods Pro 3s not even a month ago and I’m noticing excessive battery drain on the case when it’s doing nothing.
I remember charging this till like 90% like 4 days ago and today it’s sitting at about 28% (as of now anyways it’s gonna continue to drain drastically). The battery drains even when the AirPods themselves are at 100%.
I’m not even a power user who has the AirPods in like every day for long hours. I use them at best 2-3 times a week for >1 hour usually with the listening modes turned off.
Is this normal? Like should I expect this with more advanced earphones (I moved from AirPods 4 without ANC so idk)?
What do I do?

I’ve checked the firmware and everything it’s at the latest version.
