The iPhone 15 isn't the only device getting USB-C charging. Apple also confirmed that the Apple AirPods Pro, its popular line of wireless earbuds, will support USB-C going forward.

At Apple's Wonderlust Event, the company revealed the new case for the AirPods Pro, which includes a USB-C port. The third-generation AirPods Pros case also supports MagSafe charging.

If you just want the case, though, it seems you're out of luck. If you want USB-C, you'll have to pay the full $249 as there will be no separate case-only option.

In addition to USB-C charging, users can expect standards such as adaptive audio, powerful noise cancellation, and more. A single charge will deliver around six hours of battery life. The AirPods Pros will be out on September 22.
