A Swiss engineer built a case that adds a fully functional Lightning port to the iPhone 17 Pro.
He said the project is a tongue-in-cheek response to requests and that he does not plan to sell it.
The prototype used custom PCBs, a 3D-printed flexible TPU case, and a magnet jig, and includes MagSafe alignment.
