Remember over a year ago when Apple unveiled its AirPower wireless charging pad and AirPods wireless charging case? Well Apple hopes that you don’t remember that at all. In fact, the company completely removed all mentions of the AirPower from its website, so it might never see the light of day. If you want cord-free earbuds you can charge wirelessly, check out the brand new Rowkin Ascent Charge+ True Wireless Earbuds that were just released today. We tried them out and they offer great sound quality as well as a much more secure fit than AirPods since they have rubber tips. They’re also the same price as AirPods despite the fact that they come with a wireless charging case! Also, if you’re not interested in wireless charging, there’s another version called Rowkin Ascent Micro True Wireless Earbuds that are the same thing but with a normal charging case instead of a case that’s compatible with Qi wireless chargers.
