I bet this will be an unpopular opinion, but I've tried for years to get on the bandwagon, since AirPods are supposed to pair nicely with my iPhone.  However, they constantly get disconnected and have to be paired again, their noise cancellation abilities are laughable, and they're uncomfortable to wear.  The worst bit is that audio tones sound muddled rather than crisp.  Music has no warmth or nuance.  I think it's time to admit that these don't work and to find a different set of wireless earbuds.  Hopefully there's something better out there.  
I understand your pain with some of the AirPods that are on the market nowadays. I had one that started giving me disconnections like you also experienced. I felt so bad about the experience.

However, I recently got the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds for around $250 because I was seriously looking for something that can last for a very long time without giving any issues.

Trust me, this is one of the top AirPods in the market!

They are comfortable to use, have strong connections with my mobile device and even have the multipoint pairing feature which I really need.

I don't know the one that you are using at the moment, but if you have yet to pick one, then this one is the right one for you.
