AirPower Redux
If recent reports are to be believed, Apple’s AirPower may live on in a much less ambitious form. The latest reports that Apple is working on a wireless charger kind of came out of left field late last month, but they also came from venerable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who has a habit of being right about these sorts of things.
If you’re hoping that AirPower itself will rise from ashes, however, that’s not what Kuo is suggesting. Instead, the report says Apple is working on a “smaller wireless charging mat.” We expect it will likely be a more traditional Qi charger, without the fancy multi-device charging capabilities that AirPower had promised, but that doesn’t mean that Apple can’t find other ways to make it stand out from the pack.
