AirPods Wireless Charging Case Said to Work With Any Qi-Certified Charging Mat

Another reason NOT to buy AirPower.

But I would still rather have one pad for all 3 products I have then a dedicated one for each. Keep my bedside clean with minimum wires.

I hope the new airpods ship with wireless charging case as standard. Makes no sense to keep producing two types of case, when all they're adding is a coil of copper.

Would also really like a black option..

Airpods Wireless Charging - is that what they call dreamware?

Hmm... $35 x 3 = $105
If priced at $149, I feel like the market for this is very narrow. You would have to own all three of these devices and want to charge all of them at the same time for this device to make sense.

$149 is $44 more than getting three $35 Qi chargers, or roughly the price of four.

With AirPower, you only have to use 1 power outlet and it uses considerably less table top space than 3 chargers. And many might prefer Apple design enough to pay the premium.

As for the rarity of the use case, plenty of people have a spouse or partner. Charging 2 iPhones plus AirPod or Apple Watch is not that rare.
