Gernot Jobstl’s USB‑C iPhone X Heads to eBay Auction
Tech lovers, buckle up—Gernot Jobstl is dropping yet another wild twist on the iPhone X, and it’s all about that sleek USB‑C port and a splash‑proof shell.
- What’s inside? A brand‑new iPhone X that keeps the cherry‑on‑top look but replaces the Lightning jack with a universal USB‑C connector.
- Why waterproof? Because life can be messy, a little rain or a splashed drink, and you still want your phone to look immaculate.
- Where to grab it? The device will be sold on eBay, so keep an eye out if you’re up for a unique gadget purchase.
Ken Pillonel’s 2022 mod set the stage, and now Jobstl’s edition takes the story forward—making this not just an upgrade, but a savvy gadgetist’s dream come true. If you manage to score this unit, you’ll not only own a phone with a USB‑C edge but also the bragging rights of a splash‑proof champion.
