I don't disagree, except to say we are in a transition period. Unless one expects a switch to happen across the board AT ONCE, reality usually is that these things phase in.How can possibly it be easier to use?! It’s an endless annoyance just figuring out which end of the cable is which!
And why shouldn’t we be able to use the same cable to charge an iPhone or AirPods as we do for our iPads, MacBooks, and every other device out there? It doesn’t make any sense to have to use a different, inferior, proprietary plug just because it’s Apple.
Yes, it would be nice if the AirPods Pro 2's case used USB-C instead. I'm not an insider, but my guess is that will soon be coming.
