    The headphones arrived defective, with only one of the earbuds, working. Since this was a Christmas gift, we were unaware of this until after the holidays at which point the return window had closed. I have spoken to in-store representatives and managers, as well as an online representative, who have all basically told me that I am just out of luck and to cut my losses. Do not waste your money.

    Complete junk. Don't waste your time and money on these. They claim to be refurbished however they're not even close. I ordered 5 sets to give out as gifts to my employees and they arrived with dented, scratched, marked up boxes, bent users manuals, tape all over everything. The AirPods themselves were mismatched, discolored, scratched up, and dirty. These cannot be given as gifts of any sort let alone kept for this price. For a few dollars more you can purchase new AirPods with the wireless charging case. Not to mention when returning all 5 pairs, you have to return them all at once in the store or you have to ship 1 back at a time. I'm not going into the store to return these during COVID. Come on Best Buy.. you're company used to be trust worthy to purchase refurbished electronics from. Returned all 5 sets. Won't purchase any refurbished items from Best Buy Geek Squad in the future.

    Defective item delivered after waiting for more than a week Stopped by store @ Mcknight Road Pittsburgh. Customer service representative was of no use, he couldn't provide any price match nor give any sort of discount. Worst experience. Will never ever buy anything from Best Buy!

    The battery died after 4 months & won't recharge. It lasted just past the 90 day limited warranty. Complete waste of money. I will not buy Geek Squad certified refurbished again.

    Apple warranty is effective as when it was originally registered in June. I bought the certified AirPods in November. Basically I lost nearly half the warranty and I can even add AppleCare on it. Overall working AirPods but would have rather had the warranty assurance
