Recent experiences with AirPods AppleCare+ battery replacement? (lemm.ee)

My 2 years of AppleCare+ are almost up for my AirPods Pro. It’s hard to tell whether my batteries have degraded significantly, but I’ve gotta imagine 2 years of use would take their toll, and frankly I’d like to get my money’s worth on the warranty. There are many reports on Reddit of people getting a no-questions-asked replacement for this reason, but a few people said Apple now does some sort of diagnostic. I couldn’t find any super recent feedback, though, and it’s unclear whether the diagnostic is checking for battery capacity or simply charging capability. Has anyone gone through this process recently?

My airpods pro from day 1 has kept me going for.. 4 years now? I’ve exchanged the buds twice and the case once. I’ve just explained to them the problem and they would just swap it, but of course thats when I had my applecare+.

Right now? Im just waiting for them to die out before replacing them. Almost got the new one last year, and i really wanna get one new pair right now, but they aint dead yet.
