It’s only a matter of time before Apple eventually switches all of its devices over to USB-C. As for how long that’s going to take, there’s no definite answer just yet, so most of us are stuck waiting for the day Apple embraces USB-C — most of us, that is. YouTuber Ken Pillonel took matters into their own hands by 3D printing an AirPods case that charges via USB-C.
Pillonel was also the modder behind the first USB-C iPhone, as well as this monstrosity of a custom-made Samsung Galaxy A51 that charges via Lightning cable. In his latest installment of doing what Apple should already be doing, Pillonel engineers a way for AirPods cases to charge through USB-C and also open up to have its battery replaced.
