AirPods Pro Keep Falling Out of The Case!

I thought I was trading up when I purchased my AirPod pros a couple of weeks ago. immediately I noticed that if the case ever fell to the floor of even if it were to open on the sofa and be jostled around, inevitably an earbud would fall out.


This happened three times in the past two weeks and today I wasn't as fortunate as I had been. I was a couple of hours away from home and it happened in a parking lot. they fell out of my lap and hit the ground and when I picked them up, I didn't think to check if they were both intact...I've never had to this with any of my previous AirPods, so it didn't occur to me.


when I got home and opened the case, the right earbud was missing. a call to apple was no help. even though THIS IS CLEARLY A DESIGN FLAW, and that I'd had them less than two weeks, apple was unwilling to do anything more than sell me another earbud for $100...grand total: 350.00 plus tax for wireless earbuds that last a little over 3.5 hours.


Although I've been an apple fan and have most of their products, I can officially say, this is unacceptable. All one has to do is take a look at the number of singles for sale on eBay.


I'm assuming this experience isn't uncommon.

According to other message boards online, it's not that unusual. this particular message board took my post down twice already. it's only a matter of time before this one is removed too.
