During Apple’s recent product unveiling, it wasn’t just the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro that stole the show by switching from Lightning to USB-C. Apple also surprised us with an update to the AirPods Pro, which had only been on the market for a year. The new AirPods Pro 2 come with a case that charges via USB-C, a shift from the previous Lightning charging.

However, it’s crucial to note that some third-party retailers like Amazon may still be selling the Lightning-equipped AirPods Pro. Therefore, make sure you’re aware of which model you’re purchasing. If you recently bought a pair of AirPods Pro, especially within the last few weeks, it might be a good idea to consider returning them for the upgraded AirPods Pro 2.
