And it really, really sounds like a combination of the wind and crashing sea on a beach. With nothing playing, I could hear what sounded like severe wind noise when you have transparency mode turned on – along with just some other chaotic noises. It was a relief to hear the familiar 'bong' sound to say that they'd connected, since it also meant that the speaker part must be working, but then it immediately started. After carefully extracting grains from inside the silicon ear tips, I put them into the case for a few minutes to make sure the buds were ready to connect, and then popped them in my ears without anything playing. They live! But they came back… changed…Īfter leaving my AirPods in the rice overnight, I pulled them out this morning to see how they've ended up. They are Schrödinger's Pods at this point both alive and dead until I observe. Still, they've gone straight in the rice, and iPhones have survived in water situations far beyond their waterproof rating, so there's a chance. The spinning and sloshing probably won't have helped either. I'm mildly hopeful at this point: mercifully, they only went in on a quick 30-minute wash, so didn't get anywhere near as drenched over time as they might have… but it's still far more water than their IPX4 sweatproofing is designed for.
