If you remember, at the end of 2020, an engineer named Ken Pillonel made a big noise with the idea of turning all Apple devices to USB C. In this context, Pillonel, which replaced the Lightning port of the iPhone X with USB-C, has now developed the world’s first USB-C input AirPods Pro model.AirPods Pro with USB-C port
As it is known, Apple today includes USB-C support for MacBooks, while continuing to use Lightning ports on AirPods and iPhone models. While this will change with the EU-approved uniform charging port requirement, users are determined not to wait for Apple.
In this context, Ken Pillonel, who managed to add a USB-C port to the first generation AirPods Pro, shared the whole process with Youtube users. Looking at the video, we see that the somewhat laborious and costly operation involved a lot of trial and error and an entirely new circuit board design.
In addition, Pillonel plans to sell its self-developed PCB board for $ 38, and AirPods Pro with USB-C for $ 326. We can say that it is a matter of curiosity how Apple will react to this situation. Because the company is expected to switch to USB-C by December 28, 2024. Therefore, we may encounter a new case.
