AirPods Pro: Airpod Pro Left Earbud Not Connecting to Charging Case

Sun, 12 Jul 2026 15:19:02 -0700

for a while now, I realised how my left earbuds have a really hard time connecting properly to the charging case. I only noticed after continuously picking up my aipods and find out the left one is empty.

I did contact apple customer service once and they suggested to bring it to an apple repair store. The only available near me happened to be an authorised store and not an actual apple store. I did book a repair and they took it in and made me come back after 1h, only to then tell me there’s nothing they can do?

They did however, clean and reset my airpods, which did not solve my problem.

Now before I tried contacting apple again, and maybe try and book a repair at an actual apple store, I thought I see if anyone had the same issue and maybe has a solution.

I bought mine in January, so I still have the 1 year apple warranty.

Note: I also noticed how sometimes my devices show different % of charge the earbuds have left. They sometimes seem to not update frequently… not sure if that has to do with the problem, but I’ve seen people have that before.

My lightning EarPods won’t work with my iPhone SE. They work on iPhone 7, 6s and 6 but not the SE. They are compatible with the SE.

Does anyone know anything about this issue? Any help would be great.

My right AirPod doesn’t work again and I can’t see the icon on my widget too, but the left AirPod works perfectly fine. Whenever I put the right AirPod in the charging case the green light starts blinking.

AirPods 3: AirPods 3 Left Earbud No Sound After Drop - Internal Inspection

Wed, 08 Jul 2026 14:54:29 -0700

I dropped my AirPods 3 while they were in the case. Now the left earbud has no sound at all, even though it still shows as charging and connected on my phone. I have already tried resetting them and checking the audio balance settings.

I have physically opened the earbud to inspect it. What should I look for inside that could cause a total loss of sound after a drop? Are there specific ribbon cables or solder joints for the speaker driver that are known to fail? Any advice on how to test the speaker driver or reconnect it would be appreciated.

No instruction manuals online or in the box to guide me through how to replace the battery, and logitech support haven't assisted me as my headset is outside of warranty period. Its make is nothing like the other G series so their guides unfortunately do not help.

JBL Tune 770NC: Static in left ear

Mon, 06 Jul 2026 09:39:58 -0700

The speakers in both ears largely work as expected, but in the left ear there is a (rather low volume but still very noticeable) constant static sound whenever any sound is played. It is not just a by-product of noise-cancelling, as the static is there both with noise-cancelling disabled and enabled. What might be the cause of this, and is there any hope of fixing it?
