Apple may include USB-C in AirPods and Mac accessories by 2024

As my colleague Jon Porter points out, Apple won’t have to comply with the EU’s forthcoming rule until the iPhone 17 is released in the autumn of 2025, since there’s a two-year grace period that gives firms (including Apple) ample time to switch to USB-C. Regardless, Gurman believes Apple will “handily beat the deadline with its most conspicuous devices.”
