    Thanks for the video, I’ve had my airpods go through the wash probably 5 times and they still do their job, yeah the quality isn’t as good as brand new bc of the fact but still, highly resilient!

    Something that really helps getting that tough dirt is using nail polish remover. Beware tho since it is highly corrosive and can affect the paint of ur airpods.

    Thank you for your video and for the time you took to share it, I would like to give you a note if you allow me, it is not good to blow electrical devices with your mouth, the air you blow comes out with particles of saliva with salt and that is not good, they are corroded by salt.
    Thanks again for your video.

    • @DIYGEEKTEXAS
      @DIYGEEKTEXAS  2 года назад +3

      It is scratched into the plastic, if you insist on removing, probably go with 400 grit sandpaper? Kind of risky though of sanding off too much plastic. Becareful!

    23:50 “when it’s clean you should see white like that” bro it’s not clean it’s just that your mesh that protects the opening is messed up and it’s gone. It’s usually black mesh in normal like the other openings.

      We use 65% proof alcohol (rubbing / cleaning alcohol). Alcohol at this strength does not break the airpods (I have clean my airpods like this about once per month).

      Honestly I think it’ll still work if you just pour the alcohol onto your toothbrush. Though it may be more efficient to spray the AirPods/airpod case with the alcohol, I don’t think it’s absolutely needed.

    These are an improvement over the 1st gen buds. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_KUgrKdeM Pros: The fit is fantastic. This is the biggest plus. They stay in my ears when running and become unnoticeable. They are tight but comfortable. The sound quality is about the same as the 1st gen buds. They pair more easily with my LG G8 ThinQ and immediately reconnect when removed from the case. The sound balance is excellent, good but not overpowering base and clean mid tones and highs.Cons: The noise cancellation is good but perhaps a little less effective than the Bose ANC on the 1st gen buds. Passthrough mode as not as good as the 1st gen buds making it a little more difficult to hear conversations when in passthrough.
