Desktop iPad Users REJOICE
Finally, we have charging stand options! KUXIU, a brand that has been manufacturing some quality iPad stands for the last few years, has finally updated their lineup with Smart Connector charging. Who knows if it was by the grace of God or Apple (synonymous?) that they've been granted permission to implement this feature. I'd hope to see other accessory makers follow suit very soon. Having gone from 2018-2024 without a charging stand is absolutely ridiculous. The Smart Connector doesn't seem to be a MFi certified hardware but rather proprietary. Can anyone confirm this? Apple must be taking a hug percentage of sales from this if that's the case. Maybe we'll even see Apple sell them in their stores just like the Logitech Smart Keyboards.
