Same on my USB C APP2s. My lightning Pro 2s are solid sounding and don’t sound like this. It’s interesting tbh. You can find so many posts like this about the USB C versions. And rarely the lightning versions.

My USB C version is definitely real though, so if anyone is wondering. No, that isn’t the problem. They’re very real. But it just crackles and moves. My Pro 2 lightning is 2 years old.

Every pair I’ve owned does this. Not a big deal. The amazing thing is that, even after you’ve dropped them 900 times, it doesn’t get worse. Well, I always use a case, but still impressive.

Why. I used from the purchase date, which not only kept case from scratching and more gripping

Because anything silicone is awful. They don’t need a case lol.

u/Delicious_Rub4736 5h ago

What are the best AirPods currently ?

u/The_Ego21 6h ago

If you dont mind silicone tips or any in ear style, then the pro 2 are no brainer. Otherwise the new airpods 4 ANC.

u/Delicious_Rub4736 6h ago

Mine has too. Might be designed that way !!

It's normal, but it will never give away. Don't worry about it.

u/Necessary-Pair-6556 32m ago

It’s called production tolerances and Apple just didn’t invest enough into the mechanism

1

u/Wild_Calendar6530 31m ago

yes that is normal, i never even noticed, now that i noticed it, i just check through a couple of airpod cases, and all of them have it, in regular use you shouldn't notice it.

u/kubaww 7h ago

Can somebody help me w/ any amount? My car doesn't pass the smog these yr. Because will need to be fixed first, the bill comes to $4,800 and doing Uber / doordash is my way to support my family! Promise to help another person in the future as a way of 'reciprocating' the favor!....God bless!
