AirPods stopped charging after updating to version 5E133

both of our AirPods stopped working today at different time. Both of my pods were completely dead in a charged case from the day before, now my case has been plugged in for 4 hrs and it’s at 1%, on of the AirPods is at 9% the other is dead. Tried a different cable and didn’t work.

My husbands case is completely dead with the opposite pod working and 1 dead. They were both perfectly fine yesterday and lasting 3-4 hrs of music.


WTH was in that update???
