AirPods 3 buzzing/hissing sound in left bud

I recently brought AirPods 3 and paired it with my 13 pro max, which on the 4th day of use caused a problem where the RIGHT BUD WAS NOT DETECTING/CHARGING when placed inside case. So i contacted apple support and they advised me to take it to apple service provider. So i took it to service and since i was covered with warranty i got my case replaced, which took 2 weeks.

The very next day after i got my AirPods back from service with case replaced, Another issue pops up, where i get a mild BUZZING/HISSING SOUND FROM LEFT BUD when i place it in my ear without playing any music or calls , also when placed inside the case with the buds charged 100% the BATTERY OF THE CASE DRAINS VERY FAST , like 3% for every 20 minutes even if i don’t use it and even I tried turning off Bluetooth in my phone and the charge was still decreasing.

So I contacted apple support, they told to try pairing with some other device and the problem persists even when i did so. So final option apple support gave was take it back again to apple service provider.

The service technician after examining the AirPods for 3 days calls me to tell “there is no issue with the device, you may come and collect it”.

I collected it, But still the buzzing at left pod continues and charge at case decreasing even when not in use.


Any ideas on how to fix this issue..??

B. Try the Following Tasks:

  • Hold Down the Button on the case for about 15 seconds.
  • Use an Apple Brand Cable - not a third party one - cool though it may look, a fabric, third-part cable would likely tear - (Apple cable's are plastic and are intended for Apple)
  • Remove the AirPod from the Case, then place it back in the charger. Perhaps it need to resync with he charger.
