Talk:AirPower (Apple)

Redirect/Merge

This article should redirect to Qi_(standard). 79.102.140.22 (talk) 11:41, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

The article now has a few sentences about AirPower, however it would make more sense to merge it into an AirPower section in the Qi article and redirect as you suggest. --pmj (talk) 23:35, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

I think it should first be mentioned on other relevant articles. These are all mentions of "AirPower" in articles. Then it should be merged into Apple Inc. or some other article but not Qi (standard). Wumbolo (talk) 07:32, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

AirPower Mat

I think that this article should be renamed "AirPower Mat", as that's what Apple seems to call the product where it is mentioned in the wireless charging sections of both the iPhone X page and the iPhone 8 page, and on the Apple Watch compare page. On the iPhone pages, although it mentions AirPower by itself, it refers to it as "The elegant, ultrathin new AirPower mat". On the Apple Watch compare page, it says "Supports AirPower mat".

I've turned AirPower Mat into a redirect [1]. 344917661X (talk) 11:21, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Vapourware?

I’m not sure that this article deserves to be written in the manner that it is at the moment. It’s hardly vapourware, Apple did announce it as “coming in 2018” and as far as I can tell, 2018 isn’t over yet. ingenieurmt 17:54, 21 October 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ingenieurmt (talk • contribs)

It's over now, and, as of 2019-03-29, it's cancelled. Guy Harris (talk) 19:45, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Discussion: "unreleased" vs "upcoming"

Recent edits on the main article have shown an edit war-like behavior between multiple editors, more specifically on the word choice. Instead of consistently going back and forth between these two words, I suggest having a civil discussion here regarding this issue and reach a consensus. While having this discussion, I also suggest weighing in the sources used in the main article instead of relying solely on opinion and/or rumors. RayDeeUx (talk) 14:24, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

There has been no confirmation from Apple that the device is cancelled, therefore it should be treated as an in-development and upcoming device. All Apple has said is that it is an upcoming product. While "unreleased" is technically correct as the device has not been released yet, it implies that it will never be released.92.236.63.92 (talk) 00:48, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

It's dead, Jim. Guy Harris (talk) 19:43, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

I understand that this is no longer an issue that affects this article, but out of interest, is it Wikipedia's policy to trust years-old press releases from a company that is famously very careful when talking about product development, even when an overwhelming majority of press coverage casts doubt over their likelihood to stick to them? 109.224.247.180 (talk) 16:23, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
