My old AirPods have a huge battery life difference between the two sides — any way to fix it?
I have an older pair of AirPods2 that I got second-hand, so I realize that some of the issues may simply be due to their age. Still, I’m hoping I can get a little more life out of them.
The left AirPod lasts about 45 minutes on average, while the right one lasts around 4 hours. I have no idea why there’s such a huge difference between the two.
I use an Android phone, and none of the apps I’ve tried that claim to show AirPods battery levels seem to work properly.
I do have access to an iPhone, so I could potentially change the primary microphone setting, but I’m not sure whether that would actually help.
Are there any other methods I could try to reduce the battery drain on the left AirPod or otherwise get the two batteries to last more evenly?
