Apple; Everyone was pretty excited when it first revealed the AirPower charging pad, which can easily charge your iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch in any situation. However, this excitement did not last long. Apple has announced that it is no longer developing this device.
But according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, this time Apple is working on a multi-device charger after MagSafe Duo. In addition, Gurman states that Apple is working on short- and long-range wireless chargers that are more advanced than the induction charging used by the iPhone and AirPods.
Apple dreams of a future where devices can charge each other
According to Gurman, Apple’s main goal is for all major Apple devices to be able to charge each other. Imagine an iPhone charging an iPad, AirPods, or an Apple Watch; that would be extremely interesting. Of course, this probably means that the ‘reverse charging’ feature that Huawei introduced a few years ago and which is not yet in Apple but in some other brands will also be required.
As for wireless charging; This feature is much slower than wired charging for now, but Apple still seems very enthusiastic about wireless charging. Of course, the fact that the European Union is strongly against electronic waste and is passing new laws for less wiring in some electronic devices is likely to play a big part in this.
On the other hand, if the iPhone and iPad are only charged wirelessly, like the Apple Watch, then it may be possible to see the day when there are no cables in the iPhone box.
