Apple AirPower continues to crawl from the depths of cancellation, and now there are pictures to prove it.

Reliable Apple leaker Jon Prosser has posted two new images of the "C68" prototype, an Apple charging pad in development that aims to do what AirPower could not. He noted that this version can charge an Apple Watch, as evidenced by the green charging lights on both the watch and the AirPods case.

Originally, AirPower was slated to appear in 2018 after being announced in 2017 along with the wirelessly charging iPhone X and iPhone 8. However, after a year of silence, it was officially revealed that AirPower would be canceled in March 2019. Later rumors suggested that the AirPower generated a dangerous amount of heat because Apple wanted the charging pad to power the iPhone, AirPods charging case, and Apple Watch at the same time, and that the fault seemed to be with the Apple Watch.

Earlier this year, however, John Prosser leaked the existence of the C68 and stated that Apple was working to fix the Apple Watch's sticking point by using the A11 Bionic chipset to manage the pad's power delivery. This is why the Apple Watch charging reveal is so important. It means that the product will finally progress to something that can be picked up in stores.

While we would love to see AirPower make its surprise debut at the iPhone 12 launch later this year, time may be too short for Apple to make a retail version of this prototype. However, since rumors suggest that the iPhone 13 will be the first iPhone with no Lightning port or no port at all, Apple may preserve AirPower until 2021. After all, the company's customers will need to have AirPower or a similar product ready for when they are forced into a wireless-only existence.
