    Issue resolved! Turns out, I had been using the wrong charger all along. Instead of the appropriate one, I was using my old Samsung USB-C charger, which only powered up the AirPods themselves, neglecting to charge the case. It seems it lacked the necessary power. I've since switched to the charger from my PC, which boasts far more strength, and now everything is functioning perfectly.

    Some great information here. None of the clones have real iCloud sync/hand off but some can connect simultaneously to multiple devices via Bluetooth. Is that a maximum of 2 items? My current ones only connect to one at a time. Do I need real ones to go from iPhone to iPad to Apple Watch seamlessly? I’d also say that buying second hand AirPods is very risky and probably not very hygienic. If you want cheap ones go straight for a good quality clone. Mine sound really good and ANC is excellent. It’s just the issue above that’s a bit of a bummer. If I get real ones I’ll spend the proper money and get them from Apple for peace of mind!
