Os AirPods Max These are Apple’s top-of-the-line headphones and, ironically, the ones that currently least compensate — not only in terms of features, but also due to the fact that the hardware itself doesn’t have the most recent updates, such as a porta USB-C.

Therefore, we can say that the already well-known engineer And Pillonel “outperformed” Apple by changing the Lightning port on the headphones to a USB-C port. In a new video published on his YouTube channel, he showed how to install the customized printed circuit board, as well as the other modifications.

Pillonel also considered adding support for cable audio, but abandoned the idea after discovering that an extra chip would be needed for this to happen, which would make the modification more expensive.

He made the kit available to disassemble and add the modified plate on your website for around R$225 (Fr40), in addition to detailed installation instructions — if you feel brave enough to modify the R$6,590 headset, of course.

It is worth noting that there are rumors that Apple is preparing to launch a new version of the AirPods Max with USB-C and new color options later this year, for those who prefer to wait. 😉
