Airpod pro right ear static

I have the same problem. I tried the hard reset and the static is still there in Transparency and Noise Cancelling mode. It is only the right airpod pro, not the left.

No success after following those steps. Right bud still sounding static on either transparency and noise cancellation modes.

I followed all the steps above and the Right ear gives a lot of static in Transparency mode and even more in Noise Cancellation. :-/

Hey zachariahaha,

You did a great job going through the steps to reconnect your AirPods. This time, let's try resetting your AirPods, by following the steps below:

How to reset your AirPods and AirPods Pro

1. Put your AirPods in their charging case, and close the lid.

2. Wait 30 seconds.

3. Open the lid of your charging case, and put your AirPods in your ears.

4. Go to Settings > Bluetooth. Or go to Settings > [your AirPods].

* If your AirPods appear there as connected, tap the More Info button  next to your AirPods, tap Forget This Device, then tap again to confirm.

* If your AirPods don't appear there, continue to the next step. 

5. Put your AirPods in their charging case, and keep the lid open. 

6. Press and hold the setup button on the back of the case for about 15 seconds, until the status light on the front of the case flashes amber, then white.*

7. Reconnect your AirPods: With your AirPods in their charging case and the lid open, place your AirPods close to your iPhone or iPad. Follow the steps on your device's screen.

Let us know if this helps!

Best regards.

I did this, it fixed the problem temporarily. I listened to some music on Apple & the static returned after 5 mins.

as others stated only on Noise Cancelling & Transparency modes.

Are my AirPods officially dead?

Exactly the same for me except it’s the left AirPod. I did the hard reset. First few times I put it in I got static for a few seconds then it stopped. Third or fourth time the static was back and didn’t go away. Only in Transparency mode as others have noted. If no further suggestions here I will go to the Genius Bar and see what they say.

Update: I took mine to the Genius Bar. They ran diagnostics; both units failed. Nothing they can do other than sell me replacement individual AirPods or (what they recommended) a whole new unit.
