Just call AppleCare support (1-800-275-2273) and Apple will quickly ship you a new pair and they include a box for you to send the defective/broken/battery-degraded ones to them. It's that simple. I've done it many times with iPhones and AirPods over the years.
Best to do it right before your AppleCare+ plan expires, and claim battery is poor, so that way you get a fresh pair + charging case with brand new batteries right before the 2-year AppleCare+ plan expires.
The batteries in these things are tiny, and they're the first (and most likely) things to go to shit after a couple years of moderate-heavy use. With AppleCare+, you're basically guaranteed these are gonna last you 4-5 years between the original buds and the last-second AppleCare+ replacements. It's for this reason that I highly recommend getting AppleCare+ for AirPods specifically. Other Apple products aren't as necessary.
You're welcome.

You're *spending* $25 ($180 on Costco- $155 on Amazon/Best Buy) for a warranty you probably won't need or actually use. Apple is supposedly so dependable, I'm not sure 2 year warranty is even worth considering on a brand new item. You'll know if it is defective within the first month. Consumerism *wants you to think* you're saving when you're actually spending it...
Alternatively there are refurbished units with 1 year warranty but you only save $5 right now, so it's not worth it
Exactly, a two year warranty wouldn't do shit if it breaks 2 years 1 day in, like yours.
