My Gen 1 Pro's have 1 month warranty left of the original 12 months you get and the noise cancellation is far from impressive anymore, should I bring it up to Apple?
I use transparency mode the most but when I use noise cancellation I'm not blown away as I used to be, l'm not sure if it's down to me being used to feeling or have they just weakened? (I've seen the posts about people saying Gen 1 have been weakened upon the release of Gen 2)
For example, with noise cancelling on I can still hear people that talk to me and even the TV slightly, it's not that far from how it sounds with noise cancelling turned off and I sometimes check to see if it’s turned on. I do have a good seal and they were updated with the recent update not long ago.

Faulty AirPods Pro that are in need of repair exhibit the following problems:
- Crackling or static sounds that increase in loud environments, with exercise or while talking on the phone
- Active Noise Cancellation not working as expected, such as a loss of bass sound, or an increase in background sounds, such as street or airplane noise
support.apple.com/en-…ues (edited)They went a bit funny.
The fix was to unpair them and do a reset.
I did this and they have Ben fine since.
