AirPods Max get an elegant solution to their biggest design flaw

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-10-19 19:09:30

My biggest complaint about AirPods Max over the years hasn’t been the steep price or which chip Apple put inside. It’s been the lack of wireless charging. Fortunately, an elegant solution to solve this problem has arrived. I use wireless charging for every other AirPods model, for my iPhone, and for my Apple Watch. AirPods Max lacking wireless charging all this time is disappointing. Fortunately, Mophie has introduced the Max Charging Stand, a $149.95 accessory designed specifically to give Ai

Apple CEO Tim Cook (R) shakes hands with U.S. President Donald Trump during an event in the Oval Office of the White House on August 6, 2025 in Washington, DC. When Tim Cook gifted President Donald Trump a gold and glass plaque last month, the Apple CEO was hailed by Wall Street for his job managing the iPhone-maker's relationship with the White House. Cook, Wall Street commentators said, had largely navigated the threat of tariffs on Apple's business successfully by offering Trump an addition

Steve Jobs famously made himself comfortable in a leather armchair and then proceeded to show everybody how “magical” the iPad was for browsing the web, looking at photos, and—yes—checking Facebook.
