Apple Is Reportedly Experimenting With Wireless Charging for Next Year's iPad Pro

After a year of gangbuster iPad sales, Apple is reportedly working on a new design for the iPad mini and revamping its iPad Pro to support wireless charging. The news comes from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple prognosticator extraordinaire. Citing anonymous Apple sources, Gurman says the company is experimenting with switching to a glass back for the iPad Pro. The move would mirror how recent iPhones have also transitioned from aluminum to glass, and the change in materials would enable wireless charging on the iPad for the first time ever. Gurman also claims Apple is testing something similar to MagSafe for the Pro, but that it'll keep the Thunderbolt port as wireless charging can be notoriously slow.
