  • Bloomberg reports on why it’s taking Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) so long to release a wireless charging mat.
  • The AirPower charger was first announced last September with the release of the wireless charging-compatible iPhone 8 and iPhone X. But Apple said AirPower wouldn’t release until 2018.
  • AirPower will be able to charge three devices simultaneously including the Apple Watch and AirPods once their charging case is released.
  • Sources say the product hit a series of technical hurdles including the complex circuitry, multiple charging sensors to allow for charging anywhere on the mat and making sure it doesn’t overheat.
  • Engineers originally hoped to launch the charger before June but now want to launch before or in September.
  • Apple shares are up 0.4% to $187.15.
