AirPods Pro With USB-C to Release This Year, per report

Looks like AirPods Pro will be among the first Apple accessories to make the jump from Lightning to USB-C in this latest report from analyst Ming-Chi Kuo; however, there’s a catch…

Kuo tweeted out Friday that he expects a USB-C charging case for AirPods Pro 2 to make its way to customers before the end of 2023:

Great! That knocks AirPods Pro off the list of Apple products that need to transition to USB-C to meet the EU’s deadline before the company gets fined into the dirt.

The EU’s USB-C iPhone Law Just Got Final Approval

On the flip side, however, Kuo ends his tweet by saying Apple seems to “have no plans” to release a USB-C version of AirPods 2 or 3 – the ‘non-Pro’ versions.

This is… slightly disappointing.

We haven’t had a new version of AirPods since 2021 when the third generation released. The normal-ass AirPods could really use the AirPods Pro treatment, i.e. a new MagSafe charging case with Find My integration and now USB-C!

Apple does have a good bit longer until the EU’s deadline for a majority of the company’s products to ditch Lightning and make the switch to USB-c, but the clock is ticking!
