Tom Warren, The Verge:
Apple’s AirPower wireless charger was supposed to arrive with the unique ability to charge an iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods all at the same time. Unfortunately, Apple canceled AirPower in March 2019, citing difficulties in bringing the product to life. Since then, we’ve seen a teardown of AirPower, some AirPower clones, and Apple’s MagSafe battery packs. Now, an Apple prototype collector has obtained a working AirPower unit for the first time.
Follow the headline link to some images as well as a video of the prototype in use.
Is this real? The finder is an Apple prototype scrounger, got this one from “Chinese e-waste sources”. Judge for yourself. Certainly interesting. And makes me wonder how closely Apple guards their prototypes once the actual model ships, or is canceled.
