    In this video (part three of the series on how to use your AirPods Pro as hearing aids) I cover how to fix a loss of sound (or “dipping”) when using custom transparency mode. This tip may also help for those that are experiencing static or feedback during normal use.
    Like others, I was ready to send my AirPods Pro in for replacement when I discovered a quick and easy remedy.

    Spent ton of time looking for a solution for muffled mic sound on audio calls. This actually worked! Most of the people in the internet threads think it's software problem, but seems like it's all about dusty mics. Little mics at the bottom didn't change anything, but when I finished with the black ones on sides - airpods just started to work as new with no problems.

    • @ereder1476
      @ereder1476 Před rokem +1

      it is an undeniable software problem. Because the mic isn't muffled all around. it is not consistent so it's not something caused by physical gunk affecting the clearness of the call.
      not to mention: shit call quality outside on this "profesionnal" version is also present on NEW, out of the box airpods

    My first pair of Pros from November 2019 had miserable static in the left bud after 2 months that I couldn't fix no matter what, so I got an AppleCare+ replacement pair in February 2020 and after 2 months developed even worse static in the left bud than the previous pair (and once again, I wasn't able to fix it). As of October 2020 I'm now on my 3rd pair (2nd replacement), and so far so good.

    Finally a video out of many I've seen that addresses an issue I'm having. I had no idea about the small tiny microphone at the bottom but it definitely had something to do with what's going on. My issue with mine are that the noise control wasn't functioning correctly. I could turn on any of the three options but wouldn't be able to discern any difference from transparency to noise canceling. I cleaned out the small tiny mic then my right side started working again but left side after cleaning is still will not working correctly. Not sure if I missed something or what. Thank you for making a video about this that others didn't mention.

I’m probably gonna get some rubbing alcohol to take some time to really clean then, but a small brush did wonders for these. My transparency mode and noise canceling immediately was better. Thank you, I never would have found that tiny hole where the mic is!

    These Echo Buds were basically an impulse buy on Prime Day. czcams.com/users/postUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_KUgrKdeM I've lately gotten into pod casts and needed a convenient way to listen. These fit the bill. I am no techie but had no problem with set up. It did take a couple tries to realize Echo Buds will only connect to one device at a time - at least it seems that way for me. The tap controls are 'very' sensitive and the sound is clear. I've been using these off and on much of the day for a couple hours at a time with no discomfort. I'm quit pleased with this purchase and will prob bite the bullet and join Audible to help get through all those books waiting to be read.

      So it’s only a recall if you have buzzing that is reproducible. I have intermittent loss of signal, but I couldn’t reproduce the buzzing and mine didn’t qualify for the recall. Try Apple Support App and chat to see if yours are eligible.
