AirPods disappearing then reappearing on Find My IPhone

I recently lost my AirPods (about 2 days ago) & unfortunately I’m not sure if I lost them around the house or while running errands :(. I could see my last location until about 2 am the next day, & it disappeared completely from find my iPhone. I assumed someone had found them & done a factory reset (sadly assumed they were gone for good) but today when I checked find my iPhone they reappeared but say no location found? I’m confused as to what that means. Does it mean that they’re somewhere & haven’t been used? Or that they’re dead? Also, if a new device paired with my AirPods would they still show up on my find my iPhone? Not going to lie seeing them reappear on find my iPhone made me a little hopeful that I could somehow relocate them, but I want to know if they’re gone for good or if I should just move on & buy a new pair.

iPhone XR, iOS 14

Hello,

If your AirPods are out of Bluetooth range, out of charge, or in the case with the cover closed, Find My won't give a current location. You just have to find them manually by looking for them. However, Find My may list the most recent location where they were last connected.

See this for more detail:
