The Future of AirPods: USB-C or Lightning?

TL;DR Summary
Apple has no plans to release a USB-C version of the third-generation AirPods, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. However, the company is reportedly planning to release a revised version of the second-generation AirPods Pro with a USB-C port later this year. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman believes that all three AirPods models could switch to USB-C by the end of 2024, hastened by EU legislation that forces manufacturers to offer USB-C as a common charging port across a wide range of devices.
