This may not be the first AirPower prototype to surface, but it is the first we\u2019ve seen be able to charge an Apple Watch Series 4.<\/p>\n<p><center><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Prototype Apple AirPower with 16 coils (PROTO1) charging a Prototype Apple Watch Series 4 (DVT). It\u2019s amazing that Apple Watch charging works, given wireless chargers today generally can\u2019t charge Apple Watches. However, the Apple Watch on AirPower gets quite warm. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/appleinternal?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">#appleinternal<\/a> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GfywG3KZS9\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/GfywG3KZS9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Apple Demo (@AppleDemoYT) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AppleDemoYT\/status\/1777003651434680788?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">April 7, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><\/center><br \/>\nWhy is being able to charge an Apple Watch a big deal? Well, the official Apple Watch charger is proprietary, which means the smartwatch can\u2019t be charged using standard Qi chargers. Unfortunately, the Apple Watch got quite warm when charging on this prototype and may have been one of the reasons why the project was scrapped entirely. Since the 16 coils are evenly placed throughout the base, setting your iPhone, AirPods and Apple Watch anywhere on the surface would have worked.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal aawp-product--ribbon aawp-product--sale\" data-aawp-product-asin=\"B0CHX7R6WJ\" data-aawp-product-id=\"117268\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"tec02e-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Apple Watch SE  2nd Gen  [GPS 40mm] Smartwatch with Starlight Aluminum Case with Starlight Sport Band S\/M Fitness &amp; Sleep Tracker Crash Detection Heart Rate Monitor\">\n<p>    <span class=\"aawp-product__ribbon aawp-product__ribbon--sale\">Sale<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41NUC0192NL._SL160_.jpg\" alt=\"Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) [GPS 40mm] Smartwatch with Starlight Aluminum Case with Starlight Sport Band...\"\/><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n<p>            Apple Watch SE (2nd Gen) [GPS 40mm] Smartwatch with Starlight Aluminum Case with Starlight Sport Band&#8230;        <\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n<ul>\n<li>WHY APPLE WATCH SE \u2014 All the essentials to help you be motivated and active, keep connected, track your health, and stay safe.
