    Replacement AirPods Pro Process

    I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Apple support changing their processes re:replacing AirPods Pros. In the past I had a lot of the crackling issues and a lot of replacements from Apple themselves. That process was pretty much: tell apple of the problems, they place a hold on my...

    How to update the Airpods Max + why they haven't updated yet for some of us

    So I went down some rabbit hole after trying to get my AirPods Max to update and noticing that they weren't updating after following all voodoo steps that I saw online. I saw this tweet which says that you could debug the process with the Console app on Mac. After playing around with it, here's...

    AirPods can work on an iPad 1

    It is possible to pair AirPods with an iPad Generation 1. It even outputs sound, although it cannot automatically turn off, and you cannot change any of the AirPod’s settings (without using a newer device that should support AirPods). Cool. :cool:

    Airpods (2nd Gen): Left Airpod doesn't connect until I put it back in the case and wear it again

    My left airpod (Airpods 2nd Gen) often doesn't connect with my devices (MBP 2015 & iPhone 7), until I take both my Airpods out, place them back in the case and wear them a second time. This is peculiar, because other than this my Airpods work perfectly. Once I re-insert them, there are no...

    Coming from overear Beats to Airpods

    Has anyone here made a switch from Beats Solo3 headphones (or any other big headphones) to Airpods? I've been loving my Beats since I bought them 4 years ago but they're starting to fall apart (literally :D ) and I'm in the search for something new. 99% of the time I use my headphones at home...

    Inconsistent Noise Cancellation? (AirPods Max)

    So I’ve had my AirPods Max for about two weeks now. Is it just me, or does the Noise Cancelling change in correlation to how your turn your head and the location of the sound source? Or is this normal? I’m on my second pair now (due to colour change) and I’m noticing this on both pairs. Does...
