When Apple introduces models for iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X, it does just that with the announcement of wireless universal charging which they called AirPower. The acquisition was promising, which is said to allow users to charge their iPhone, Apple Watch, and / or AirPods. In other words, it can be a wireless charging base that can charge multiple devices at the same time.
However, it may, as far as possible, the material was not released in the end. At the launch in September 2017, Apple confirmed that its marketing will begin in early 2018. Unfortunately, it wasn't ready. Apple had problems building and / or rebuilding the terminal canceled its launch in March 2019, after more than a year
However, as it turns out, it is possible that the AirPower project has not been completely abandoned. This device is still under construction, as recent leaks suggest, and will be an integral part of Apple's plans to upgrade the wireless iPhone, with a view to the future of wireless.

Apple continues to work on the AirPower charging base
At the end of March, we reported that Apple was allowing its employees to take work home to develop and clean their prototypes while in solitary confinement. At that point we already expected that this would lead to more maturity, and it always has.
YouTuber Jon Prosser He also shared an AirPower-type image allegedly by an Apple engineer who took the picture while working while confined to his home due to a state of emergency announcement over the distribution of the COVID-19 epidemic. In the picture we see a kind of transparency called "C68" from a wireless charging base:
While working from home, the developers of Apple & # 39; Sharing and Project & # 39; they found model units for something called “C68”.

"While working from home, engineers in the Apple & # 39; Proximity and Sharing & # 39; cluster find units of the C68-type object. They have been asked to work on communication software between future A11 device devices to manage heat."

More information about the new AirPower
Jon Prosser also wants to discuss some more mature information about the foundation of the new apple-loaded wireless company:
AirPower (2) review:
Apple believes it is "necessary to push a wireless iPhone"
Codename "Callisto" (original)
Transmission coils are lower but larger than V.1 (trying to resolve overheating w / underlap)
Protective materials are white leather, instead of original silicone pic.twitter.com/BpHG3rbAY5

As mentioned in its tweet, Apple believes that this charging base is needed to work the iPhone out of ports. Its code name will be "Callisto", the same secret code as the original AirPower and which will be similar to the original "C68" textbook found by Apple employees at home. On the other hand, he points out that he will have them small transmission coils but they will be great for solving the problem of overheating.
Finally, it shows that the covers of the cover of leather instead of silicone, the original version of the AirPower model was made.
Future iPhone arrival without ports
Although it may seem that manufacturers have reached the top when it comes to smartphone design, that is not the case. Not too small. Still you have not finished dipping the construction of mobile phones. And there is so much to do: Provide the best phones just for the front screen, remove the side buttons, integrate the front camera under the display, and remove the ports to give consumers a smartphone that doesn't need wires.
Apple has been working on this idea (the wireless future) for years, and it's probably closer than we think. They first removed the 3.5mm jack from their iPhone, then worked to develop wireless software resources such as AirDrop, AirPlay 2, or Share Audio.
But in order for a wireless iPhone without ports to finally be imported, Apple first needs three things to make it happen. The first of them, notch should disappear and facial ID sensors should be placed at the bottom of the screen. Second, AirDrop transfer rates need to be upgraded to provide better performance and support larger data files. And finally, this future iPhone will require faster wireless charging.
In short …
Considering all the information collected so far on these latest leaks on a load basis, all seems to indicate that the problems Apple faced during the AirPower upgrade were concerning. too much, not from billed devices, but from the core itself.
Keep in mind that Apple has changed the equipment for these new AirPower prototypes and provided guidelines to its team of engineers to work from home to avoid overheating during communications between the two devices.
This is how Jon Prosser personally addresses the problem:
Using the A11, the new prototype has the ability to transmit energy to specific areas of the coil and can vigorously wait for temperatures to decrease before using too much power – preventing them from overheating.
The technology is excellent.

In its words, the Apple Watch uses an advanced charging method too, it requires a lot of energy charge your battery. For some prototypes, if you place the Apple Watch in an AirPower charging station next to other devices, the base will pass through and in some cases burn.
Using the A11, the new AirPower prototype has the ability to transfer power to specific locations and handle heat energy before using more power. Thus preventing the base from overheating. When will we finally see the basis for charging in the market? We don't know, but knowing that Apple is still working on it is good news.
