Left Airpod drains faster than the right one

I have purchased Airpods 3rd generation. I have been noticing that the left airpod consistently drains faster than the right one. Left one only gives about 1-2 hour battery whereas right one drains slowly and gives more than 3 hours.


Is that normal?

  • 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.
