Although these days we are enjoying tropical temperatures that directly invite us to laze around pools or ponds in the summer, when we look at the calendar it is clear to all of us that the summer idyll is over.onekoneThe end will not last. In a few days, August will swing into its second half, which will fly by like a snap of a finger and its time will come again.oneca the arrival of September, hated by many of us, which is a kind of symbol of the end of summer fun. Students return to school, working people return to their jobs, and everyone starts to turn their thoughts from the holidays to Christmas. However, for lovers of the company with a bitten apple in the logo, September is not such a painful month. It is precisely in this month that Apple every year introduces a barrage of new products and launches new operating systems into the world, making many of us enjoy an early Christmas already in September. However, this year's conference will be something special.

For last year's keynote I remember being on the stage of the Steve Jobs Theater like it was yesterday. A touching beginning with a memory of my father Appwas replaced by a relatively rapid introduction of new products, led by iPhonem X. In addition to apple phones, watches and Apple TV but he showed us Apple and its own wireless charging pad AirPower and wireless charging case for AirPods. However, he did not reveal when exactly he intended to launch any of these products on store shelves. At that moment, few of us could have imagined that almost a year after their introduction, they would not be available. Apple able to deliver these products to store shelves. For the case for AirPods don't bother me that much, but the fact that sales haven't started yet AirPower doesn't bother me too much.
One would think that when Apple will infuse its new iPhones with glass bodies that support wireless charging, will not miss the opportunity to make as much money as possible from this novelty, and will launch its own wireless charger alongside these phones. It wouldn't be though Apple, if he didn't try to come up with something innovative that would interest customers and maybe even convince them that the higher price for the product is at least partially adequate given its features. That innovative product, which was supposed to change the rules of the game among wireless chargers, was supposed to be AirPower. A product that can charge up to three devices at once and will charge your iPhone as well as your Apple Watch whether AirPods with a special case, you have to want it, right? But wanting it is the only thing you can do at the moment. Actually, not only at the moment. You've been able to want it for almost a year now.
Enthusiasm alternates with hopelessness
It is precisely the cruelly long time in combination with the higher price, which should, according to available information, be around five thousand crowns in our swamps and groves, that could bring the long-awaited product to a halt. By the way, we can see a great parallel with another product Applu – HomePod. Customers have been waiting for this one for a very long time, and although a huge number of Apple ecosystem lovers enthusiastically declared after its introduction that they would definitely buy it, over time the enthusiasm waned. Of course, this is now fully reflected in its sales, which are not at all convincing. Of course, Apple sells it only in a few markets. On the other hand, it was the users in these markets, mainly in the USA, who enthusiastically proclaimed that HomeThey will certainly go down. But one thinks, time and Apple changes.
We can't be surprised by the change in customer opinion in any case. Should we wait three quarters of a year for a speaker that will be twice as expensive as the competition and will also be significantly limited in terms of the functions that the competition or the artificial assistant on your phone has? Thanks, I don't want to. Instead, many Apple fans prefer to buy a cheaper product that doesn't boast a great design. Applu, you won't find a bitten apple on it, you won't get stickers with it, and you won't read "Designed in California", but the original Applu in other things, which are often much more important, will exceed. And a similar fate could also befall AirPower.
Anyone who wanted to try wireless charging bought a charger from a competitor immediately, and if not, waited several months for it. AirPower certainly forced him to do so. If you then buy iPhone this fall, you'll probably also be thinking about buying AirYou won't think too much about Power. Why? The answer is quite simple. Do you really need a charger for five thousand crowns when you can get chargers for 20% of that price? Of course, you won't charge them all at once Apple Watch, iPhone a AirPods. But is it really necessary? Personally, I have AppI have quite a few toys that I would need to recharge at one point. iPhone, So i Apple Watch a AirCan you please help me? nesthello. And yes, I use all three things to the fullest, at least in my opinion. As a result, for me it would be AirPower turned it into a regular charger, on which I would usually only place one product per day, maybe two here and there. But from conversations with my friends and colleagues I know that “I am not alone in this” and they work similarly. So who is the charger actually intended for? One could answer with the obligatory phrase: “For a different target group”. But what is the target group for chargers, if not regular users using products from Apphuh?

Bottom line, sum up – AirPower will be for me and the people around me Apple by disappointment. This product absolutely cannot justify its price with the vast majority of customers, which, in combination with the long waiting time, which discouraged many potential buyers, is a deadly combination. Apple would probably have done much better if he had introduced his classic wireless charger to us last September, put an average price tag on it, and boasted about it AirPowerem would have waited another year. He could have had at least a slightly higher success rate. You simply don't want to pay around five thousand crowns for a year-old product with a specific use.
👍 well, honestly, I'm quite curious what it will be like apple resounding success.
It is clear that the charger is intended for overnight charging of all products. I put my phone on the charger next to the bed, take off my watch and put my headphones next to it so that I don't have to look for them in the morning... And in the morning I wake up, everything is charged on max and I can just take it and leave ;) For me, the ideal helper, but the price is scary :D
Millions of new iPhones that for the first time in history are going to charge wirelessly and Apple why is there no chargejacku. According to me Apple introduced AirPower to make people wait and not buy something else. Well, probably not even myself Apple he did not expect that even after a year from his nabijackand nothing. So as written in the article. Most of them bought something else and maybe even found out that wireless (much slower) charging is not that bad. Thus Apple he could sell a bunch of chargers with his own high margin, but in reality he has 0. The only thing that comes with Airpower, but the price tag will be lower. Because people will already be buying it as 2-3 tiu nabijackand there they are already calculating whether it is worth it to them.
Wireless charging brings only worries. Just put your phone aside for a while and it will be hot and charged in the morning maxat least from one half. Or if you crush them on the table after charging. It's stupid I went back to the cable.
Exactly. The only advantage of wireless is solar benches somewhere in the city, when the iPhone is discharged, there is no cable at hand.
In my opinion, the main problem is that when charging three devices wirelessly, so much waste heat is generated that it is simply not possible to make it in the design they showed so that it can be used normally. I would probably use it, because I charge everything overnight even if I have more than half the battery. However, I prefer stand chargers, minia little bit about the phone and the watch, so I would airDidn't buy the power anyway..
I have a stand charger on my desk at work that cost 250 CZK, and a flat charger by my bed that I put my phone on for about the same price, and both are perfectly fine. But I really don't need a charger that costs 5000 CZK.chatI charge it once a week and I only need a cable for that, I don't have a watch.
