Ahhh, my rejoicing was premature… After a couple of minutes the left AirPod just stopped working. From memory, if I put it back in the charging case for a few minutes it’ll work for a few minutes again. Still, I guess the right earbud still works…
@Miraz I’ve had that exact problem! 3rd generation AirPods, the left one ran down & wouldn’t charge. put it in the case & the light wouldn’t even blink. tried all the tricks the internet told me: resets, etc. but weirdly it’s been best when it somehow resets itself 🤷♂️ good luck!
