I'm thinking of selling my Airpods and getting the USB-C version myself (https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MTJV3AM/A/airpods-pro).

Even as an Android user, I looooove those Airpods. They're so much more comfortable than the Android ones

But no lossless audio support yet!

Different colors and lossless audio, there’s the home run

That's okay, at this age my ears don't support lossless audio either!

Looks like they’re going for $140 on Swappa, so that’s essentially $110 for the USB-C upgrade and fresh batteries.

I can’t believe they just released the Gen 2 AirPods without updating the charge port to USB-C, especially given the iPhone changeover has been telegraphed for over a year. It’s like they learnt nothing from the MacBook USB-C transition.

The re-released Gen 2 Airpods PRO, at least, now have USB-C!

Also individual airpods please, for those of us, who, have, ahem, washed an airpod. (Secondhand case, sure, secondhand airpod... ew)

They used to sell the case, and each airpod separately (with the total for all three being the same as a new pair), but it looks like they stopped? It was very useful when I ran over my airpods case with my LandCruiser, and it got a bit wonky (but was amazingly still fully functional).

You have to go through support in my experience to buy them. I wonder if the new case works with the old pods.

And I wish I could just trade the Type-C case with my lightning case (with at most a tiny refurbishing fee), there are a lot of people who just bought the Airpods pro 2 last or this year and not likely to purchase again in 2 yrs

That'd be nice, huh?

the new airpods do have usb-c no?
