AirPods Protective Case Installation Guide and Frequently Asked Questions

To provide you with the most perfect anti-slip experience for your AirPods case, we have fully upgraded our product design starting from June 2026. Currently, a dedicated auxiliary OCA adhesive strip is included inside the packaging of the AirPods 4 and AirPods Pro 3 series. You can directly scan the QR code inside the packaging to view the installation video.

 

🛠 3 Easy Installation Steps

  1. Wipe and Clean the Device
    First, please take a clean wiping cloth and carefully wipe the surface of the AirPods charging case's top lid. This step is extremely important; thoroughly removing dust, fingerprints, and oil from the surface ensures the best results for subsequent installation and adhesion.
  2. Apply the OCA Adhesive Strip (Optional)
    Take out the included OCA adhesive strip from the packaging. When peeling the strip off the release paper, please avoid touching the adhesive side with your fingers as much as possible to prevent affecting its stickiness. Next, apply the strip to the center of the top edge of the AirPods charging case lid (you can also slightly adjust the position according to your personal preference), press gently to secure it, and finally, peel off the transparent protective film on the surface.
  3. Put on the Case and Press Firmly
    Take out the top lid of the protective case, align it correctly, and slide it directly onto the lid of the AirPods. After installation, use your fingers to press firmly a few times on the designated securing areas of the case lid to ensure that the protective case, adhesive strip, and device body adhere fully. Finally, check if the appearance is straight and secure, and you're all set!

 

 

💬 FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q1. Why does the top lid of the newly received protective case look slightly "concave"? Is it a defect?

A1: Please don't worry, this is not a defect, but our latest "Enhanced Wrap Technology"! 

Since the surface of original AirPods from different batches is extremely smooth and minor dimensional tolerances exist, we have fully optimized our technology starting from June 2026 to ensure the protective case does not loosen over long-term use. The lid appears "concave" before installation to provide a stronger clamping and wrapping force once installed. As soon as you actually put it onto your AirPods device, the concavity will disappear instantly, and the appearance will return to completely normal and fit perfectly.

 

Q2. What is the purpose of the included "OCA adhesive strip"? Is it okay not to use it? Will it damage the device body?

A2: This is the best solution adopted by major brands to address the tendency of new-generation AirPods cases to loosen, and you can freely decide whether to apply it.

Starting from June 2026, AirPods 4 and AirPods Pro 3 series protective cases come with an OCA adhesive strip. This included strip is primarily used to fill the micro-gaps between the device and the protective case. You can first try installing the new top lid directly; if you feel the grip during daily use meets your expectations, it is completely fine not to apply it. We use a dedicated residue-free adhesive, which requires only a small surface area to generate a strong anti-slip force. It is safe, will not damage the device, and leaves no residual glue when removed in the future, so please use it with peace of mind.
