Apple AirPods Suppliers Seeking Funding to Expand Production in Vietnam

That sounds like a dud. I just got a set of new AirPods for Christmas and didn’t notice any of those faults. Are you sure they’re genuine?

I have genuine APP and case is click-clacking, but I don't care.

Another reason Apple should be making black and other colours at launch not just this “white” as if you state it’s better than others (colour).

And that would be wrong.
