Charge Your AirPods Pro or Another iPhone

A cool new feature that Apple showcased when it introduced the iPhone 15 is reverse wired charging.

While wired charging isn’t very Apple-like, it’s still great to know that you can plug your second-generation AirPods Pro into your iPhone 15 and start charging them immediately.

This doesn’t just work with the new USB-C AirPods Pro case, either; you can charge your older Lightning-equipped AirPods with a standard USB-C to Lightning cable. In fact, just about any USB-compliant device should be able to draw power from your iPhone 15.

You can even plug your iPhone 15 into another iPhone 15 to start charging it. The iPhone with more battery life will automatically be the one that charges the other one.
