The iPhone is probably miles ahead of the competition when it comes to performance. However, one thing that Android smartphones have rocked for a while is a USB-C port. USB-C should be the new standard on iPhone models but Apple is reluctant to switch from the Lightning port. We have previously seen that an engineer neatly modded an iPhone with a USB-C port. Now, the same engineer is taking a step forward and switching the Lightning port on the AirPods charging case with a USB-C port. Scroll down to read more details on the subject.

An engineer showed the world its first-ever iPhone with a USB-C port. Now, an engineering student Ken Pillonel has managed to create the world's first AirPods charging case with a USB-C port. Pillonel explains in an interview that his motivation was derived from Apple products that still use Apple's proprietary Lightning cable. While it looks simple, the project took a lot of effort.
