I think my first generation, bought at release, AirPods are finally losing their battery capacity. I’m getting about an hour and three quarters of listening time before I hear the low charge alert tone. One ear seems to be worse than the other.

They’ve had a good run; I use them almost daily, for three to four hours a day, on average. They’re honestly one of my favourite bits of tech from the last few years.

I don’t know if I’ll “upgrade” to the Pro’s – price aside, I have yet to find a pair of in-ear headphones I can wear for more than a handful of minutes without discomfort.
