Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
My AirPods Pro have a crackling sound when I clear my throat or even chew gum. This is really annoying. Almost $300 for these pair of ear buds, and I was expecting more quality. I bought apple care for these things, but the stores are closed. Does any one know if there is a solution to this problem?
iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13
Hello,
Hmm, it could be due to wireless interference:

Good luck.

My left one does the exact same thing but only if I have the noise cancel/transparency turned on. If you switch to "off" see if it stops. I notice mine clicks if I move it in my ear but only if either are turned on. Haven't contacted apple yet myself.

You can get them replaced, but it will probably come back. I've replaced mine multiple times. It's an issue and I've been told I should use them in "off" mode until engineering comes up with a fix. I can unbind them from all devices and even turn off bluetooth on those devices and they still crackle in noise cancelling and transparent modes. They will crackle if I speak, walk around, touch them etc.. It does not happen in off mode. I hope its fixable with a software update but I'm not going to hold my breath.
I like how the other post is listed as the answer....lol Wireless interference... yeah ok. Seems like a totally legit system here.
Hey there. Thanks for the tip. I just tried it in off mode and it does not crackle. And music sound good. Well, at least Kelly Clarkson does 👍🏼😀
Like you said, it would probably get fixed with a firmware update. I will also return them as I have Applecare for them, and when trying to fix with someone from Apple on the phone, one of the tips got torn.
Thanks again and have a great day.
Álvaro.
