How to check AirPods firmware version:

Apple doesn’t provide a way to install new firmware versions for devices such as AirPods directly. But firmware is installed over the air while the ‌‌AirPods‌‌ are connected to an iOS device. Putting the ‌‌‌‌‌AirPods‌‌‌‌‌ in the case, connecting the ‌‌‌‌‌AirPods‌‌‌‌‌ to a power source, and then pairing the ‌‌‌‌‌AirPods‌‌‌‌‌ to an iPhone or an iPad should force the update after a short period of time.

• First of all, connect your ‌‌AirPods‌‌ or ‌‌‌‌‌‌AirPods Pro‌‌‌‌‌‌ to your iOS device.
• Open the Settings App.
• Now, select General.
• Select About.
• Now, select the AirPods currently connected to the device.
• A menu that shows relevant device information, including the firmware version, will appear.
