one airpod is louder than the other

Left one is noticeably quieter. Balance slider is in the middle, cleaned the mesh carefully with a dry brush. Better a bit but still not even.

Almost always earwax on the speaker mesh of the quiet one, even when it doesn't look dirty. Clean it gently with a dry soft brush or a cotton bud, no liquid going into the mesh. Then check Settings > Accessibility > Audio & Visual and make sure the balance slider is dead centre. If it's still uneven after both, reset the AirPods from the Bluetooth settings and pair them again.
