If you need service for your AirPods, Apple service providers can generally offer repairs and parts for at least 5 years from when that AirPods model was last manufactured (or longer where required by law). After that, support may be limited based on the product’s service status.
AirPods may be considered vintage when it hasn’t been manufactured for more than 5 years but less than 7 years. For vintage models, hardware service may no longer be available and parts can be limited.
AirPods are considered obsolete when it was discontinued more than 7 years ago. Apple no longer provides hardware service for obsolete models, and service providers can’t order parts for them..

Customers are responsible for backing up all data prior to service. Please ensure you have a backup that has been verified as working before bringing any device in for repair. It may be necessary to erase the device during the repair process and, without a verified backup, all data may be permanently lost. While iStore takes reasonable care when handling devices, we cannot be held liable for any data loss that may occur during service.
For all repairs, Find My must be turned off before service can begin. This is required to allow us to carry out testing and complete the repair in accordance with Apple’s security requirements. If Find My has not been disabled before your appointment, and it cannot be turned off in store, we may be unable to proceed and your repair will need to be rescheduled.
