Highlights :
- The iPhone 15 could still be able to use 15W wireless fast charging.
- In comparison to Apple’s MagSafe devices, Qi2 chargers could be more cheap.
- September is predicted to see the release of the iPhone 15 variants.
In September of this year, Apple is anticipated to introduce the iPhone 15 series, with the newest technological advancements and aesthetic changes. Although the projected release of the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max models is still months away, there are practically daily reports of leaks and rumours regarding the devices on the Internet. The forthcoming series will use the new Qi2 wireless charging standard, which is based on Apple’s MagSafe technology, according to a recent rumour. The next-generation international wireless charging standard, Qi2, was presented by the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) at CES 2023.
The most recent iPhone models enable wireless charging at 7.5W and 15W right now. Apple offers compatibility for up to 15W of faster wireless charging with MagSafe-certified chargers, whereas non-MagSafe wireless chargers only give up to 7.5W. The forthcoming iPhone 15 will support a maximum of 15W wireless fast charging using the new Qi2 charging standard, which is based on Apple’s MagSafe technology, according to a report by ChargerLAB. In order to achieve 15W rapid wireless charging speeds, customers will not need to use the MagSafe charger.
Apple’s MagSafe module costs around $16 (or about Rs. 1,300) at wholesale, which has caused retail prices to increase. The new Qi2 wireless charging module is claimed to cost less than one-third as much as the MagSafe module, and the makers are not needed to be approved under Apple’s “MFi” (Made for iPhone) programme. According to reports, this would enable the market for wireless charging accessories to become more affordable and quick.
Additionally, all iPhone models that allow wireless charging are believed to be compatible with the Qi2. Apple has not officially confirmed the standard’s charging speed, though.
In September, the formal launch of the iPhone 15 series is anticipated. In order to comply with a legislation enacted by the European Union, Apple will remove the conventional Lightning connector and replace it with a USB Type-C port in its 2018 iPhone range. Dynamic Island is supposed to be standard on every model in the new range. The A16 Bionic processor is anticipated to power the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus, with the A17 Bionic SoC being the likely choice for the Pro versions.
