My Dogs Chewed My Wireless Apple AirPods

Actually, they only chewed one, so my first question is, is it possible to just replace the one they chewed and buy it rather than a new set?

Alternatively, I can't remember what sort they were. I think they were. 2?

I want to buy them online now from Apple Store, I have an iPhone Pro Max.

What sort of ear phones do I order.

They don't have to be the latest and greatest, just suited to my iPhone 12 and wireless.

They're just for listening to tv or audiobooks etc when I don't want others to hear them too. Not needed for exercise and I'm not a hard core music afocondio who needs first class sounds etc.

TIA

      Sold as a pair, but can be purchased if you need to replace a single AirPod -
      Go here -> Lost or Missing AirPods -> Replace lost AirPods

      Did you lose an AirPod or your Charging Case? You can buy a replacement for a left or right AirPod or the Charging Case. Your replacement will be new.

    Luckily they didn't swallow them, otherwise Vet bill = $$$$

  • Perhaps they are looking for more time of you.

    visit the apple store and find out at the genius bar?

      I heard if you have proof of purchase they might even give you one ear for free.

    I lost my left one and found out with a bit of googling I could buy the missing one (either L or R ear). Was replaced in about 10 mins at the Apple store and activated but out of pocket was $120. Even with 'find my ear pod' spent a few hours in shopping centre and car park but not precise enough to find it-and only signals for about 12 hours depending on how charged they are.

    Thank you all so much.

  • Because Blue Suby sounds like he had trouble synching them, (and a single one costs$120 anyway) I decided to buy a whole new set from jbhifi.

    Just to clarify, I need apple AirPods with Charging case [2nd generation] and these will work fine with my iPhone 12 max pro?

    Cheers

      AirPods 2nd gen are compatible with your iPhone 12 Pro Max.

      Pretty much every true wireless buds will work fine with your phone. Even the $20 ones.

      Lots of well priced options on Amazon that would be better than non-pro Airpods.

    • First I'm a she not a he (or they/them whatever!) When I bought the second (third?) EarPod I didn't have to worry about sync-the Apple store wasn't crazy busy through weekday so they just offered to do them and cover warranty. Mine were the Pro's so quite a bit dearer to buy a new set.

  • You can train them to not eat something and/or redirect to something else, ie toilet rolls or chew toy. Something to consider which can take time but can save money.
