Apple AirPods to Get Wireless Charging Soon, Major Design Overhaul in 2020

Dec. 3, 2018

Apple AirPods with wireless charging was expected to debut alongside the much-awaited AirPower wireless charging mat, however, it hasn’t seen the light of day until date due to technical complications. And it still isn’t expected to launch anytime soon but that doesn’t mean Apple will be sitting ducks on an AirPods upgrade.

The wireless charging case for AirPods was first announced at the iPhone X launch earlier last year, so it’s already high time Apple delivered on its promise.

It will also include an improved heat-resistant hinge on the case, which tells us that the wireless case would be an add-on accessory – like it has always been rumored. Kuo also mentions that the new components are expensive to manufacture but there’s no say on whether Apple will ramp up the price or not.

So, we can obviously expect Apple to come up with an ‘AirPods upgrade’ in the coming months, especially since they’re already long overdue.
