Watching this AirPod Pro repair video is like witnessing a high-stakes surgical procedure-but instead of a scalpel, we’ve got a heat gun and a prayer! 🔥🔧 If only fixing these was as easy as just ‘unpairing’ and ‘re-pairing’-we’d all have a lot fewer headaches and a lot more working earbuds!

[@abdulallahalharbi7825]

The problem with apple isn’t pricing only, you can buy professional equipment for 10 times the price of the AirPods, the problem with it is the longevity, if I buy a 300$ earphones I’d expect them to last at least 10 years before buying another pair, not 2-3 years !

[@Safi-Zargar]

The problem is the battery. So most they only last 4 to 5 years for me.

[@marvzki]

If you are careful with your device maybe it can last 10 years. But the battery, it won't matter how you take care of it, it will still degrade as time passes on.

This repair is so difficult it’s insane! This crap MUST be made illegal! With all that EU was doing about right to repair, did they overlook Wireless Earbuds? Why can’t they just design it so some part would simply unscrew and give access to the insides? Why do you need to solder the battery?! I literally have a Gillette Razor with a battery inside and all I need to do to open it up is a quick twist. There’s a rubber gasket, and I’ve used that thing for like 15 years now probably, submerging it into water, cleaning, all of that - ZERO problems. Why does Apple need to bath AirPods in a glue?! This is madness!

[@ViperClone]

Probably for size durability and quality of product. But we know the real reason 💸

@@kc_jones_gaming Ooooh, do tell!

[@kc_jones_gaming]

@@MonstertruckBadass The warehouse has an entire section of steel dedicated to counterfeit, 3rd party lightning cables. For people that don’t know, the serial number on your cable matches the serial number of the phone it’s packaged with. It’s an off white, size 1 font serial number on the outside of the cable. You generally need high magnification and light to see it. I have a theory that they have a code that burns pins on cheap 3rd party connectors. The engineers had a special hate for “counterfeit cables” so it wouldn’t surprise me if my theory became true

Few months ago I replaced the battery of my 2.5 year old soundcore liberty 2 pro. In Bangladesh I did not find the exact same battery, so I had to connect 2 of 30mah battery parallelly and to make it even more clumsy I had to separate and use the bms from the previous battery. Man that was quite hard with limited tools, but it did work!

[@pibblesnbits]

Apple doesn't even service these. They replace them. Should be illegal to manufacture unserviceable products like that.

[@GurwinderSingh-mi1tn]

the only thing I want to mention is that you used so much iso to remove the ribon cable and the white glue. there was a big chance a earspeaker from that much amount of iso. good to hear that everything went fine. Btw I do microsoldering aswell so that's why pointed that issue out. love watching your videos, keep it up man.

[@exceptionallyriso]

"There was a big chance a earspeaker from that much of iso"? I feel like you missed something in the middle of that sentence

[@sephylle]

⁠@@exceptionallyrisohigh chance for the isopropyl to seep into the earspeaker cavity, making it sound buzzy and crackles alot, with it being trapped in there its not easy to remove since using heat will damage the earspeaker and the isopropyl has no way to evaporate since its isolated

I still lament ever since the launch and craze over small BT headphones. No one thinks about all the batteries and waste these things end up being. Sitting hear wearing my 12 year old Sony MDRs, I have a set of 1980s Porta Pros. These things last forever if you take care of them. Thats the problem, batteries made these consumables and not "products" like a lot of Americans think of when we buy electronics. I have computers as old as 12-15 years old that still run. These days Apple builds in electrical runoff as they put high volt power rails right next to data lines which inevitably causes device failure 5 years down the line. It makes me angry that this is "preferred" among the general populace, we've allowed companies to enslave people into a cycle of infinite buying crap that does very little to enrich our lives.

[@markb1911]

I replaced the batteries in my OG airpods from 2017 successfully by taking it slow and forcing myself to be patient. How would you compare the difficulty level of the airpods pro battery replacement to the original? I’m going to have to do my APP soon. Honestly because of all the adhesive and sealant for protection to liquid Ingress, these look like they’re going to be a lot more difficult.

Why should it be different? As the speaker was not moved, the sound quality should remain same.

[@julien1103]

@@mazahaka3691 hey man ✌️, im not sure for this point as, I’m doing repairs as well, once I had to remove an iPhone speaker and when I placed it back and tested everything, I was able to hear a very bad difference as I broke the isolation made of silicone to propeller aim the song out of the speaker hole. That’s why I was just wondering as he broke the « original seal » by opening the airpord, if the sound quality would’ve been different.

[@ronlevin2339]

Use fairphone airpods, you can change battery in about 2 min there.

[@paultomaszewski1964]

They make these this way on purpose, they want you to buy a new set instead of repairing them. Though I've not heard or used this brand, Fairphone Fairbuds, they are designed to be able to replace the batteries in the earbuds and the charging case if they go bad. And they are IP54 rated so splash/sweat proof. Not to mention that the Fairphone is also very repairable and anyone can do it with a little common sense.

You forgot something: you must absolutely put silicone glue inside the headphones. Otherwise, the headphones may sound different, often worse, with less bass, or they might be louder but with more echo, or make strange noises when inserted in the ear. Therefore, to seal everything properly, apply silicone glue to ensure everything is sealed.
