We have been waiting for some time for the Apple AirPower wireless charger to launch. The last thing we heard is that it may launch some time this month.
According to a recent report by 9 to 5 Mac, the AirPower wireless charger could launch very soon as references to it have been discovered in the latest beta of iOS 12.2.
iOS 12.2 beta 6 was released recently, this is probably the last beta of the software and the final version is expected to be released next week. Apple are holding a press conference next Monday the 25th of March, they are expected to release the iOS 12.2 software on the same day.
Apple’s Upcoming Press Event
The press event next week is for Apple’s new TV streaming service and the company is also expected to make their new Apple News subscription service official next week as well. This event is highly anticipated as Apple is expected to unveil several new products and services that could significantly impact the tech industry. The TV streaming service is rumored to include original content produced by Apple, as well as partnerships with major studios and networks. This could position Apple as a major player in the streaming market, competing with the likes of Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Disney+.
What to Expect from AirPower
As iOS 12.2 is coming next week, we suspect that Apple will also release their AirPower wireless charging accessory next week as well. The AirPower mat is designed to charge multiple devices simultaneously, including the iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods. This would be a significant advancement in wireless charging technology, offering a convenient solution for users with multiple Apple devices.
The AirPower mat was first announced in September 2017 alongside the iPhone X, but its release has been delayed multiple times due to technical challenges. Apple has reportedly faced issues with overheating and ensuring consistent charging performance across different devices. However, the discovery of references to AirPower in the iOS 12.2 beta suggests that these issues may have been resolved.
Wireless charging has become increasingly popular in recent years, with many smartphone manufacturers including wireless charging capabilities in their devices. However, most wireless chargers on the market can only charge one device at a time. The AirPower mat’s ability to charge multiple devices simultaneously would set it apart from other wireless chargers and could make it a must-have accessory for Apple users.
As soon as we get some details from Apple on when they will be launching their new wireless charger, we will let you guys know. The release of AirPower could also coincide with the launch of new AirPods, which are rumored to include wireless charging capabilities. This would allow users to charge their AirPods on the AirPower mat alongside their iPhone and Apple Watch, further enhancing the convenience of the wireless charging experience.
In addition to the AirPower mat, Apple is also expected to release new iPads and possibly a new iPod Touch at the upcoming press event. The new iPads are rumored to include updated hardware and possibly new features such as Face ID. The iPod Touch, which has not been updated since 2015, could see a significant refresh with a faster processor and improved camera.
Overall, the upcoming press event promises to be an exciting one for Apple fans, with several new products and services expected to be announced. The release of iOS 12.2 and the AirPower mat could mark a significant milestone for Apple, showcasing their continued innovation in the tech industry.
