Why is there audio delay with my AirPods Max?
Asked by

I've been using my AirPods Max for a few years now, but recently I've been experiencing a significant audio delay on both my iPhone and MacBook. The firmware on my AirPods Max is stuck at version 5E133, while the latest update is 6F25. It used to work perfectly, so I'm not sure what's causing the problem. Is this a common issue, and is there a way to fix it? I've even attempted to troubleshoot with ChatGPT, but nothing has helped so far.

Are you certain your AirPods are the real deal? Sometimes outdated firmware can indicate that you might have fake AirPods. Checking the serial number with Apple might clarify that. I know it's frustrating, but Bluetooth is necessary for them to function. If you disconnect Bluetooth, your Mac may recognize them as external headphones, but you won't get any sound!

One option you might consider is heading to an Apple Store for help with updating the firmware. Just a heads up though, I can't guarantee that it will resolve the audio delay issue. Hope it helps!
