While all four iPhone 15 models feature a USB-C port, Apple continues to sell several products with Lightning. In his Today’s newsletter “Power On”., BloombergMark Gurman outlined when some of these products will switch to USB-C.
First, Gurman said he expects USB-C versions of the Magic Mouse, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Keyboard to be released alongside the next iMac.
Second, he said the standard AirPods should be updated with a USB-C charging case in 2024.
Third, he said that the next AirPods Max will be equipped with a USB-C port, but did not give a timeframe for the release of the over-ear headphones. He previously reported that the AirPods Max could be updated as early as next year.
Finally, he said he expects the MagSafe Battery Pack and MagSafe Duo Charger accessories to eventually return with USB-C ports.
