Hello thameem96,


It appears the ear tip may not be pushed on all the way or aligned properly based on the photo you shared. When attaching an ear tip, "align the ear tip with the oval-shaped connector on the AirPod. With your fingers at the base of the ear tip, push the ear tip onto the connector until you hear it click into place." This information can also be found in the following article.


Choose your AirPods Pro ear tips and use the Ear Tip Fit Test


Let us know how that goes!

Thank you for the photo.


Troubleshooting this Gap:

It's Time for a New Pair: This gap is going to stay there until you get a new AirPod. Having a cut like this may cut your ear. So, get a new pair. And that's that.
