Why do my AirPods only last about an hour on a full charge? What can I do?

My keep my AirPods in the charging case unless I am using them. Now my battery doesn’t even last an hour. What can I do to improve my listening or talk time?

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 11.4, Airpods

I'm guessing you are referring to the batteries on the AirPods themselves? You can only listen to music for an hour? Are you sure the AirPods are charged to 100%? If you haven't used the AirPods for a while, even while in the case they will discharge. You can check the battery status when you connect the AirPods to your iPhone. If your use of the AirPods is not similar to what is reported in this support document, Charge your AirPods with charging case and learn about battery life - Apple Support then I suggest you contact Apple Support.
