In a rare and embarrassing step for Apple, the spa located in Cupertino has canceled the only anticipated ‘AirPower’ charging mat. In 2017, the charging station was announced with the iPhone X. Apple had announced that the mat would be on sale in 2018. It has not happened clearly, and there is no future for the product.
The trick to cancel a declared product – and that too when the announcements are made on the scale on which Apple makes them – is rare and shameful.
In a statement issued to Bloomberg, Apple’s senior VP Dan Riccio of the hardware says, “After much effort, we have concluded that the airpower will not achieve our high standards and we have canceled the project”. Ricanos further say, “We apologize to the customers who were expecting this launch. We believe future is wireless and committed to pursue the wireless experience. “
Obviously, it seems that Apple has missed the bus by bus.
Announced in 2017 and fixed for sale starting from 2018, ‘AirPower’ was a type of charging station, in which all the Apple mobile devices – iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch – had the theoretical capability to charge at once . Theoretically now, since the product “Project” is not seeing the light of day.
Although Apple has not specifically made it clear why the product was not launched, many reports last year mentioned the company’s inability to work around issues of overheating. Software calibration in devices was also allegedly one of the issues.
For a time since its existence, it is quite unclear when the company of the Cupertino / California giant (except for the first Sense-Steve Jobs era in its history), when it comes to innovation on the hardware front. Obviously, services have become a major focus for the company, but the hardware is the same as Apple, which has created “Apple”. It would be interesting to see what the company offers in its events in September this year. 5G is clearly out of the list because it is still looking for a partner for the same (Samsung, ZTE and others have technology, and it is creating itching while lending to Apple).
