Learn how to return your original Powerbeats Pro earbud back to Apple after service.

After you’ve contacted Apple for service:

• In Australia, you'll receive your replacement product by mail. Please use the same box that included your replacement device to return your product.

• In Hong Kong, New Zealand, and Singapore, you’ll receive a kit by mail that contains a replacement product with everything you need to return your original product to Apple.

• In Japan, a courier will bring your replacement product and collect your original product.

Returning your original product is not required if it was lost.

Important: If exchanging a product, return it so that Apple receives it within 10 days of the day your replacement part was shipped to you by Apple (check your ship date). If Apple doesn't receive your product within 10 days, or if Apple technicians find that your original product is ineligible for service or for any reason not covered by an active AppleCare+ plan, you'll be charged the full value of the replacement part.

Your serviced part is covered by a 90-day service warranty, or the remainder of your original product warranty or AppleCare plan, whichever is longer. Australia or New Zealand consumer law will also apply to your serviced product in those countries.
