The dream of ‘AirPods with USB-C input’ has come true!

Ken Pillonel, the developer known for modifying technological devices and making them different from the original, this time. AirPods with USB Type-C port implemented it. Last year it made the world’s first USB-C iPhone and the first Android phone with a Lightning connector.

How did the idea of ​​AirPods with USB-C input come about?

Ken Pillonel, in his statement on the subject, stated that the Apple products he uses have USB-C ports and that he feels the need to modify the AirPods in this context. Creating an AirPods case that works with USB Type-C is more difficult than adding a Lightning connector to an Android phone He added that it is.

Saying that he aims to make the project open source, Ken Pillonel stated that he designed the USB-C port so that it can be attached to AirPods as a spare part. The developer who conveys that people can use it when he completes the necessary work “Just remove the Lightning connector and plug in the USB-C circuit” said.

It can be charged with the adapter of the MacBook

As it is known, the MacBook has a USB Type-C port, and this shows that the modified AirPods can be charged with the computer’s adapter. Ken Pillonel stated that the need for a different charger for each device has disappeared, and said:

It’s very satisfying to be able to use just one cable and one charger for all my Apple devices. This is what it really should be.
