AirPods Charger Case Expected to Come With USB-C By 2023

 

Popular analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is now aiming for Apple to introduce USB-C connection support on the AirPods charging case by 2023.

This support is expected to be introduced for all AirPods models starting in 2023. However, for this year, Apple is still expected to introduce AirPods Pro 2 with Lightning support.

This transition is seen to be in line with the directives of the European Union, in addition to rumors saying that Apple will also introduce an iPhone with a USB-C connection soon.

Previously, the European Union had stipulated that all devices sold in the continent come with USB-C by 2024.

I predict Apple will launch USB-C-capable charging cases for all AirPods models in 2023. However, the charging case of the new AirPods Pro 2 launched in 2H22 may still support Lightning.
