Air Power perhaps has been one of the very few products in Apple’s history that has caused a lot of bad PR for the company.
We continue to believe that the future is wireless and are committed to pushing the wireless experience forward”Ever since 2017, fans have been eagerly waiting for the wireless Air Power mat, at that time Apple assured its fans that they will be releasing the product in 2018.
Then came and went 2018 and no sign of Air Power was seen and finally in 2019, Apple officially killed the one of Apple’s most highly anticipated project.
The main reason for its cancellation was the engineering challenges that were faced during the project’s experimentation phase where Apple engineers saw the Air Power wireless mat suffering from overheating issues.
Interestingly, earlier in March, The Wallstreet Journal reported that Apple had given a thumbs up for Air Power to enter mass production.
However, after 550 days of announcement Apple has finally laid the project to rest.
