How easy/hard would it be to upgrade the charging port to usb-c?

Nenad Tarlac - Replica

This would be nearly impossible because micro-usb and usb type-c use different pinout (different number of pins...) and require different layout of the connection points on the charging PCB. And also the size of the usb-c socket is different.⏎
To do such modification it would require altering the charging PCB board, speaker housing (hole for the charging socket) and jumping (soldering very thin enamelled wires) from the usb-c connector to the different points on the charging PCB board.

Also this wouldn't increase the maximum charging speed, it would just be for the convenience of using one type-c cable with different modern devices.
