Do Your AirPods Also Fall Out of Your Ear?
5 Annoying Problems with AirPods Nobody’s Talking About!
AirPods have been around for a long time. I’ve been using them since 2020. They are one of my favourite tech products in all of Apple’s product lineup.
Despite their greatness, they have plenty of user experience problems, which is why I’m writing this piece about them.
Warning: While many people might share similar experiences with their AirPods, I must caution against taking all I write for granted.
1. An AirPod Deplete Sooner Than the Other One
The first odd thing you might notice about the AirPods is how the battery depletes on each AirPod. It’s often the left one with 10 to 20% less charge than the other.
I’ve had the experience of using AirPods for many years, and I have used AirPods 2, AirPods 3 and AirPods Pro 2. All of them had this issue.
While I don’t mind the 10% battery difference, I do mind when I’m having a walk, talking over the phone, and one AirPod suddenly shuts down due to low battery.
