Rumor: Apple has started producing AirPower pads

From Mashable’s Don’t get worked up about AirPower just yet, Apple stans, posted Saturday:

The Hong Kong website ChargerLAB reported, via a “credible source,” that AirPower wireless charging mats are already in production. Separately, an app developer mentioned he had heard that Apple overcame its ongoing production problems with AirPower. Taken together, these developments suggest the long-gestating tech might finally become a reality.

Breaking: AirPower is finally coming. We just learned from credible source in supply chain that the manufacture Luxshare Precision has already started producing Apple AirPower wireless charging pad. Luxshare Precision is also the maker of Apple AirPods and USB-C cables. pic.twitter.com/UqgWIAh3sx

My take: I’ve read—and written—enough snarky Apple headlines to recognize the formula. Expect a lot more “finally”s when AirPower finally arrives.
