Got the same issue. Just bought the fresh 15 pro max and it won't connect to my airpods pro 2. "connection failed" over and over. the buds are easily connectable to the older iphone models. idk why, that's sad

Me too, iPhone 15 pro connected to old AirPod pros for first 4 weeks or so, last week they stopped connecting, doesn’t even pop up as device in Bluetooth - says ‘accessory’ and pairing times out. Fully charged AirPods, reset, held down button to pair, nope nothing. Would be great if Apple can explain the problem? And why now, was fine for first 4 weeks of new iPhone 15 pro. Thanks

By the way, don’t waste your time going to Apple Support for this. After going through that whole process, they basically just said, “Sorry, we are aware this is happening and don’t have a solution. Hopefully, it gets fixed someday, no idea if or when it will happen.” So, all you 15 Pro Max users out there, enjoy having to forget and re-pair your Airpods every single time you take them out of your ears.
