Apple Begins Selling AirPods Pro Replacement Ear Tips Through Its Online Store

The replacement tips will likely also be stocked at Apple Stores, although all locations outside of Greater China remain closed.
Apple offers two sets of small, medium, or large ear tips for $7.99 each in the United States, with pricing varying in other countries.
Replacement ear tips were previously only available through Apple Support, priced at $3.95 for a single set in any size. This remains an option for customers who want to save a few dollars. Follow our step-by-step instructions.
