The AirPods Pro are fantastic headphones with which to enjoy hours of audio content without interruption, but they have a bad thing that can happen to all of us. As neat as we are, it is normal that in the end specks of dust or dirt end up entering the case or the headphones, so we must clean them with great care and in this article we will tell you how to do it.
Clean the AirPods Pro case
Like the case of another range of AirPods, the one of the ‘Pro’ contains tiny holes in which dust, tiny food scraps, lint or any other small item can sneak in. The most correct way to clean them is as follows:
- Take the headphones out of the case.
- Make sure the case is not wired to power.
- Use a dry fiber cloth to clean it outside and in the most accessible areas. You don’t need to wet it.
- For smaller pockets, such as the headphone socket, use a lint-free ear bud.
- For the Lightning connector it is recommended to use a toothbrush that has soft bristles and is totally clean and dry.
And is it done? Yes, that’s it. It’s that simple to clean the AirPods Pro case correctly and without using any special liquid. If you have not cleaned them for a long time or for some reason you have become too dirty, this may take longer, but it is not necessary to use other elements for cleaning. If you notice that it resists, try to rub a little harder but always with enough delicacy so that it does not spoil.
Clean the AirPods Pro headphones
Hearing aids are the most sensitive part of the AirPods Pro set and therefore it is the part where we must be more careful when cleaning them. Follow these tips for it:
- Remove the ear cushions from the headphones and wipe the dirt from them with a dry fiber cloth.
- Without the pads in place yet, use a soft, lint-free swab. A soft-bristled toothbrush can also be used for the most difficult holes.
- Do not use sharp elements that could damage the product.
Accessories to clean them with
Following the advice of using dry fiber cloths, soft bristle toothbrushes or lint-free ear buds, we can go to many stores and find it. We then recommend a series of products of this type that we believe can serve you perfectly for your purpose.

If not, and you want to know which ones to choose, these that we recommend are suitable for cleaning AirPods Pro. It is a very cheap pack made up of 100 cotton buds that does not release lint, so your headphones will not be damaged.
Microfiber cloths
These simple chamois will be more than enough for your task of cleaning the AirPods Pro and its case. This pack of 6 with ultra-soft microfiber materials can be used to also clean televisions, computers, mobiles and tablets without fear of damage.
