Rumor! AirPods Pro Case with USB-C Charging Port Coming Later This Year
The latest AirPods Pro, the second generation AirPods Pro, was released in September 2022 with a Lightning port charging case, and it’s been reported that AirPods will switch to a USB-C port following the iPhone 15 launch.
Earlier, there were reports of model numbered AirPods in iOS 16.4 RC, which Ming-Chi Kuo believes to be the AirPods Pro with a USB-C charging case.
However, there is no information regarding the specification of the new AirPods Pro, but it is expected that it may change the port of the charging case alone. And there is no information yet if the new AirPods Pro charging case is USB-C, it will be sold separately so that the previous model can also be used or not.
Kuo revealed that the new AirPods Pro USB-C charging case may begin production and shipping sometime in Q2-3 this year, so there’s a chance it might be released later in the year, along with the rumored launch of the iPhone 15. With every USB-C port
As of now, many of Apple’s accessories have switched to USB-C ports, such as the Apple TV Remote, so it makes sense that the AirPods range will switch to USB-C as well.
Kuo said that Apple has no plans to change the charging case port for the AirPods 2 or AirPods 3 at this time. This means that the AirPods Pro will be the first models to use USB-C first, with other models likely to upgrade later.
