Looks like the Airpods Pro 3 are ever so slightly a different shape than the 2. So are there any cases available yet for them?

I had a Nomad case and loved it, until I needed to pair them with different devices and had to keep removing it. That got old.

I saw a post online that it stained their AirPods. Did you ever have that issue?
 
Those DBrand cases look nice. Anyone have one from a previous product?
Their descriptions of the features are quite amusing :)
 
Spigen has cases. I use one with my APP2 and there is a model for APP3 ready to go and one in the making.

Another option:

Does anyone like a clip to keep it shut if dropped?

I like the DBrand grip for the AirPods. It wasn't my favorite, but it was nice.

I have the VRS Design @Mike330R posted on the way. I also ordered this. I will see what I like better and return the other:


The MagSafe makes this one attractive.

My favorite case is the LaterCase since it's thin enough for the MagSafe to work naturally, so I'm hoping these come in stock soon. I'll upgrade to it in a heartbeat.


I also would really like Caudabe to release a Mezzo case for the APP3's.

ESR Flick Lock

I have the same one but without the Flick Lock for my APP 2, it's a sturdy case and the magnets in the lid keep it very securely closed. This is the version for the APP 3:

I've always used the Twelve South leather keychain case. Really like having it attached to my keychain and being leather. Sadly, the pro 3 size is just enough change in dimension that it is really hard to snap the Twelve South case closed. It will work for now but really hoping they come out with a new Pro 3 case soon.

Would try another brand but invariably they don't have good keychain ability, are not leather, or they have major issues with staining the AirPods case, falling apart, etc.

if anyone knows another good brand for what I'm looking for, let me know!

Was wondering that, as I’m saving up rewards points from my Autodesk affiliates programme for AirPods Pro 3.

I did have a chance to check the stores if they had AirPods Pro cases compatible with the third generation but they only had them for the first and second generation ones.

Seems like I can’t get this one if I get the pro 3s. The pro 3s have longer cases.

After having traded so many APs and then AP Pros to get the latest version, I am tired of buying so many new cases that are not kept very long.
With the Pro 3, I decided to reuse the DBRAND grip from my Pro 2. The imperfect fit is not a problem since I currently do not take it with me for trips, and the Pro 3 protected. I do not worry about seeing the light in the front of the case, but I am not able to activate the button on the back of the case (without removing the case each time).
The main disconnect has been when pairing my Pro 3 with my pc. Apparently, there is no other route other than pushing the button on the back of the case. However, I do not remember any other scenario where I need that particular button. What am I forgetting?

I've had a Nomad leather case on my APP1 since day one - no staining. The color of the leather might make a difference, though. Mine is what is usually called "British tan," a light brown color.
I don’t think it will. It seems like it’s a difference size.
I tried to get my leather Nomad APP1 case onto the APP3. Kinda/sorta/almost, but didn't work.
