1. Knowing Apple it would've been &700

2. AirPower is being replaced with MagPower in there feature Products like for example with a Apple Watch now there’s going to be a Battery charger case the size ration that you can place over your Apple Watch magnetically. Also MagPower will have extra Features like portability from the Matt+ mag charging station. Of a 9×6 size split into 2 battery pieces of 3*matt

3. I’m not going to lie I was looking forward to that. And why comment thing backwards 4:37

4. I'm glad i don't want to burn in my sleep

5. . This was such a simple device to make. For £99 bucks

   All I would of done is use a triangular with my chip. A mini LED type tech in the AirPower that turns off the power to the dead coils. IE you make every bit of the AirPower device alive like a OLED panel and turn off the coils you don’t need!

   Simple

6. Mac pro worry

7. Apple probably worked on a better solution. I hope they surprise us this year.

8. I'm coming from the future and a company called Xiaomi has been able to make a real airpower but with 60w charging power vs 15w of the apple airpower and for a fraction of the price…

9. I'm from 2022. Don't worry , they did not cancel that Mac Pro. In fact, they made it a lot better!

10. Marques watches too many Technology Connections videos and start doing his own videos about failed yet interesting technology products. Great videos, both of yours, BTW

11. we will never have wireless transmission of electricity. How would you control people if they had free electricity?

12. Marques went monica for the mac pro

13. Surely they could work out how to do AirPower using MagSafe technology?

14. I feel like they sort of redeemed themselves by adding MagSafe to the 12 and 13

15. Mac Pro will live on.

16. If you're here come the tech company lie to us video, leave a like

17. i imagine production team be like "yeah a million dolars bonus to the one who makes airpower works"
    a guy who will be facing a divorce by march 2019: "yeah i can do it"

18. Why were apple fans excited for a charger lol

19. 6:05 – 6:27 is the best part lmao

20. Only I love stevejobs I love apple but u really good awesome men

21. Now mag safey

22. Apple I don’t feel so goo-

23. Why Marques made video about a regular charging mat?

24. “i guess it’s pretty apple like that they would rather cancel than make a new pad” didn’t age so well

25. $135 for a hunk of plastic with some charging coils in it? What the actual lol

26. Watching this after getting MagSafe Duo feels weird

27. Moral of the story. Don't announce a product until you know for sure it works and is safe. Seems like Silicon Valley still hasn't realized this.

28. Here's the thing though, Marques. Qi charging was introduced with the iPhone 8 models and iPhone X…which were announced at that event…which weren't in the hands of customers yet…which means current iPhones didn't have Qi charging! In the clip you showed, those were 7 or 6s or 6 models shown, models that don't have Qi charging. So to say it didn't work with devices that don't event support the feature is something that was glossed over. AirPower didn't work for the other reasons you mentioned about overheating, not because it didn't charge incompatible phones.

29. And they fixed this with MagSafe!

30. Maybe it was so more people would by the iPhone 10

31. Bummed that it didn’t happen but good that they didn’t ship dangerous projects. Don’t worry they didn’t cancel the Mac Pro, you have one.

32. what you came for starts at 3:25

33. I think air power is the magsafe

34. Nomad base station pro with FreePower

35. Samsung did this easy

36. Curious question. Is marques the sole maker of his content, like he doesn't have a team?

37. Both

38. They should have waited until they got the product finished

39. The satisfying egypt individually touch because poultry finally punish of a gigantic babies. useless, hallowed wrist
