It does not.
I believe this is true. I just recently had my iPad Air and the wireless charging feature did not work.
Wireless charging works on some new iPad Air’s and some older ones (like mine). However, it does not work with the iPhone 4. As far as I know, it does not work on any ipod, iPhone 3G, iPod touch, or iPod nano.
There is no official word about the wireless charging feature in the iPad Air, but it’s a shame that there are so many people who will never know.
I actually don’t even know if they have wireless charging. I think it’s a myth that it does. I think the wireless charging is only really a joke on the Apple marketing department because of the lack of any official word.
In an interview with Macworld, Apple’s chief software engineer Steve Jobs said that he is “very skeptical” that wireless charging will ever be a thing in the iPad. He also noted that there isn’t really a market for it (or an effective one for that matter).
So, the wireless charging thing is a lie? I suppose it is a little weird that it doesn’t have a working wireless charging method. It would be weird if Apple would be the first company to release a product that doesn’t have a working wireless charging tech. But they have? That’s great. I think that they are one of the few companies that have not tried to kill off wireless charging by refusing to ship their products with it.
A lot of Apple’s products are sold with wireless charging. Like the iPhone 5s with wireless charging, the iPad Air, and even the iPad mini. But, you know, it always seems to be a little sketchy when Apple refuses to ship their products with wireless charging as well.
It’s true that not all Apple products ship with wireless charging. But the fact that Apple is the only company to refuse to ship their products with wireless charging proves that they are true believers in wireless charging. It also proves that they are not just a little bit dumb.
Apple probably doesn’t want to ship their products with wireless charging because that would make the products prohibitively expensive. It also means that Apple would have to build out enough charging to make up for the cost of wireless charging. But they don’t really have to do that. They don’t have to ship their products with wireless charging because it’s an Apple product. It’s also true that most other companies don’t ship their products with wireless charging.
