Just got basically the same thing for $35 on a dealnews deal a few weeks ago. Both phones charging. Apple can't even get a charge on time. $49 would be expensive for it.
I want to get one of these for my iPhone XS and I don’t even have AirPods or a compatible Apple Watch.
He is flat out wrong then. If I'm in bed my phone is most likely in do not disturb mode, I do not need to see the screen. If I'm at my desk I don't need to see the phone screen, I have the computer screen in front of me. Likewise my watch, it charges when I'm asleep, I do not need to see the screen at all. Besides which, I can always just look at the damn thing on the desk and still see the screen if I absolutely need to.
AirPods were released only three months after they were announced, and were priced competitively.
AirPower was announced with a TON of hype almost 18 months ago.
Based on Apple's pricing of their own USB-C chargers, this thing will be expensive as hell. All the while, everyone who purchased an iPhone 8, 8+, X, Xr, Xs, and Xs Max have been buying up $15 Qi chargers on Amazon this entire time.
AirPower will never be in the same league as AirPods. My opinion is not snarky; it's a harsh lesson for Apple.
This ship sailed away long ago and Apple missed the boat.
Always negativity on here. Doesn't matter what Apple does.Surprised by all of the negativity. As long as it can charge my Series 3, iPhone, and new AirPods all on one mat, I’m going to be super excited to get my hands on one. ONE CORD to charge them all, folks. Beautiful.
Pretty sure Apple said they'd sell a separate wireless charging case when AirPower is released in the September 2017 keynote. But that was a little while ago...So, I don't get how they show AirPods charging. When does Apple start to sell a wireless battery case for them? Will they even sell the case separately or will you have to by a new pair of AirPods?
I’m probably the minority here ... but I’m actually excited !

Nobody cares anymore.

Except the thousands of customers that walk into apple stores everyday and will see this on display.
Stop being a fool. This is made for overnight charging.Does anyone want this?
Even "Talosive Tech" a self confessed "Apple Sheep" says he does not want this.
He says wireless charging needs to be that the phone/watch is upright so you can see it.
Like a night stand or so that face-ID works.
None of this works with the devices lying flat.
This is dead and pointless.
However, the fact that this "IS" Form Over Function, means I'm sure Apple will continue with it regardless of what anyone else thinks.
