Problems with airpods 1st generation

Airpods 1st generation. Used little during the years. Charged regularly etc. The problem is that typically the single earphone lasts 15 minutes then you have to put in charge and use the other one till end and do the routine. The box is green (charged 99%) and the charge is very rapid but this is the duration.

What's the problem?

Thx

It seems like that battery life of the airpods is severely depleted. You can try and reset them to see if the issues persist


Return AirPods to factory settings

If your AirPods aren’t working correctly after you restart them, you can return them to their factory settings. 

Do one of the following:

  • AirPods (all generations) or AirPods Pro (all generations): Put the AirPods in their case, close the lid, then wait 30 seconds. Open the lid, then press and hold the setup button on the back of the case for about 15 seconds, until the status light flashes amber, then white.
  • AirPods Max: On the right headphone, press and hold the Digital Crown and the noise control button at the same time until the status light next to the charging port changes from flashing amber to flashing white (around 15 seconds).
