Airpods Pro Cutting Out

my brand new AirPods Pro, $250 AirPods, are cutting out every time I listen to a phone call, streaming music, downloaded music, or any other media. This is been a problem in the past with other AirPod as well. This is 2020 and this should be resolved by now. I have tried every single recommended method to resolve this issue date - unpairing and re-pairing, unpairing and erasing phone and re-pairing, etc. Nothing works!

Hello frustratedincorporated,


Ensuring that you're getting the audio quality that's expected from your AirPods is extremely important, and you've walked through some great troubleshooting steps for working towards a resolution.


Let's have you complete the steps listed below, testing after each step:


  • Toggle Bluetooth off in Settings
  • Restart your iPhone
  • Fully charge your AirPods
  • If you have a case on your iPhone, remove it
  • Disable Wi-Fi in Settings
  • Disable Wi-Fi Calling in Settings > Phone
  • Disable Cellular Data in Settings > Cellular
  • Forget the AirPods in Settings > Bluetooth > [accessory name] > Forget This Device, and then set it up again.
  • Forget every Bluetooth accessory (including an Apple Watch) other than the one you're testing with in Settings > Bluetooth.


Have a great day!

Hello frustratedincorporated,


We're glad you had the opportunity to try those steps, and found a workaround that provided a resolution. For troubleshooting purposes re-enable automatic ear detection. Once re-enabled please go in to Settings > Cellular (Mobile Data), and temporarily disable Cellular Data (Mobile Data) to test to see if the issue continues. Take note of the experience, and reach out to an available Apple Support channel through the Get Support website.


Have a great day!
