Left airpod not charging

How is it possible that my right airpod is fully charged (100%), my case is also charged (87%) and my left airpod is not charged at all (0%)? It happens so frequently that I've started to hate my AirPods.

Sometimes, the charging issue is due to dirt or debris on the connectors in the case or on the AirPod itself. Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to clean both the AirPod and the charging contacts inside the case.

Reset your AirPods and check for firmware updates. Sometimes it can resolve charging issues. Connect your AirPods to your iPhone and check if there’s an update available under Settings > Bluetooth > AirPods > About.

If none of these steps work, there might be a hardware issue with your left AirPod. I recommend contacting Apple
