Question

When I set up a pair of airpods, the name shown is in what appears to be Chinese + English:

speaker selection

This isn't a big deal, but I'm wondering why it does this. What do those Chinese characters mean?

Was it helpful?

Solution

my name is Mei, and to answer first character 枫 ( fēng ) is a component to a chinese name and literally means "Maple" and second character 的 ( de ) is a possessive particle or meaning "of" or belonging to, to put simply it means "Feng's AirPods"

OTHER TIPS

If I were you, and if it is annoying you, I would suggest just running a factory reset on the AirPods. It might help :)
