How to fix AirPods Pro 3 noise issues?

Update after 32 days of investigation on my Ear pod 3 pro by Apple service centre and Apple back end technical team , India -

* Root cause for the squealing or crackling noise is still unknown in all 2 replaced ear pods + 1 purchased one submitte for complaint .

* Apple support team in India says no refund possible in India , only Apple care + will be refunded

* Apple support team gave me only 1 option which is replacement which I was forced to accept

* Apple Support team needs 14 days to complete replacement ( 47 days in total since I submitted my EarPod for repair )

* Apple support don’t have answer what if the issues repeats on replaced product ? My inner voice says - are you dare enough to wait for another 45 days

• MESSAGE AND LEARNING : Apple support team ensures your are handled professionally and drags for almost a month even for replacement ( with or without apple care warranty ) and you will feel next time why I took this path
• when going good with product & design - all is well , when it ends with issues - don’t you dare to come to at us ( Apple support next time , mind it ) ..

Regret purchasing at launch date ,interestingly no influencers I follow has picked this issue yet .. very strange

My ordeal continues with Apple India support team for last 41 days ( escalating & talking themselves by holding my product at their authorised service centres in Chennai) .. Apple support team after replacing both the ear pods twice and now agreed to replace

with full box piece( with no option & willingness , no choice of refund in India) .. since 71 days from purchase including additional Apple car + ( Apple India investigated my product for 38 days with them , so far no root cause communicated ) .. prepared for another 14 with Apple India process for replacement & refund of Apple care + .. one of the poorest customer care I have ever come across in India ( Apple India Support Team based in India. sure to lose more customers for their lethargic way of handling of customers , India consumer forums are so weak & lengthy to drag them ) I’m looking at Bose pods already as my replacement .. not ready to buy a newer AirPod pro 2 ( which I have been using last 2 yrs) due tho poor customer care at back end .. I heard many customers who had similar problem are reluctant to submit their product due to long lead time by Apple India customer care & their service duration - easy way to fizzle out the heat

i got similar issues with tha AirPods Pro3.

even more annoying is the fact that the case and the headphones itself seem to decharge quickly even when not in use. Even more annoying, the headphones will not charge when in case.

they are both draining battery without reaching 100%.

sorry Apple, but what have you done here?

I expect a quick software update asap !!!

I was about to send them back, but this literally fixed the problem. I really hope they fix it in the next update, because Pro 3 is literally perfect in loud environments, just have this issue at home...

Thank you

I tried this and its exactly how u describe the white sound disappears after I do the test and cancel it but as soon as cycle it or remove one of the AirPods from my ears it goes into transparency and then white noise returns, do u still have this issue?

Just confirming I have the same issues with my AAP3 headphones I bought three days ago. Worked just fine for three days, then randomly- out of the blue I start to get the microphonic feedback chirping sounds everybody else is getting. No idea what it is, but like everyone else has said, that AirPods Pro 2s never had the same issue. Seems like something unique to the new headphones. Would love to love these headphones, Apple.

Should also add- like many users, the issue is in the right unit exclusively. Left works just fine and doesn't seem to be the result of a physiological difference in my ears. You can hear it feeding back even before it's placed all the way in the ear

Same for me. Got them friday and since I can hear this white noise/hissing/static noise in both airpods,equal.

Hope to be a firmware issue and not an hardware one!

I have tired resetting them and I’m sure most here have too. I can say from my experience that resetting them and updating them to the latest software did not work.

I have the Same Problem it is always doing a acute Sound in the canceling Mode… Hope you guys fix it otherwise ill Go back to Sony xm6…

I also hear the white noise especially in my left AirPod Pro 3, but if I pay more attention it's also in the right AirPod. I hope this can be fixed by a software update!

Same issue here. I’m also returning mine and keeping the 2nd Gen. :(

I have set up another appointment with Apple. Will see what they will do. M

I’ve had 2 brand new pairs the new ones are squealing/feeding back too. Awful

Same issue here. New firmware was released today by Apple, 8B25, and the issue still persists.

How was the music sounding with a wax blocked left ear?
