“I have a pair of AirPods that are 2 years old. Looking for an upgrade but I'm a little confused. The 199 wireless charging case port for the lightning USB cable...is it for the new USB - C port like on the new MacBook pros or is it like on the iPad?”

Neither. Just your typical iPhone charger!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is Apples standard lightning cable port. Not the USB-C like on the MacBooks.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The $199 wireless charging case + 2nd Gen AirPods utilizes Apple's Lightning port, not USB-C. You can also only purchase the 2nd Gen wireless charging case for $79.99, again comes with Lightning port. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/apple-airpods-wireless-charging-case-white/6296120.p?skuId=6296120

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It’s the same lighting cable that’s used with the first generation AirPods (what you have) as well as the iPhone, iPod, etc.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hey there, Shelby the port for charging the new AirPods is still the same no changes can continue to use the standard lightning cable. But the good new it does come with its own cord for charging
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The charging port is the standard Lightning port that is used for the iPhone and all iPads except the newest iPad Pros. It is not the one on the new MacBook Pros.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is a regular lightning to standard USB port. however they do support wireless charging which is great if you have wireless charger. I typically put mine on the wireless charger before I go to bed on the second day of use and they are good to go when I wake up in the morning.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It’s just a regular lightening port which you get in iPhone and iPad. Moreover, the box contains the cable, so no worries.
