Apple sells AirPods per piece, so losing one earbud does not mean buying a new set — you buy the missing side and it pairs with the case and earbud you already have. The price is the same whether the AirPod was damaged or lost, which is why both are covered by this one page. AppleCare+ makes no difference here: it covers accidental damage but has no loss cover, so a missing AirPod is charged at the price below either way. AirPods Max is absent from this list because it is over-ear and has no separate earbuds.
