The
wireless charging is confirmed forthe iPhone of 2017. A new report from
Apple specialist analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities says
that this iPhone 8 from next year should offer therecharge sans
wire thanks to induction, like what exists for Apple
Watch. Surprising information, Apple may not include a charger
wirelessonly for the most expensive model, while with the
other iPhone 8, you will need to get one more:
For the moment, according to the latest rumors, the iPhone 8 would be available in
3 very distinct models, an iPhone 8 and an 8 Plus model,
both in a continuing evolution compared to the iPhone 7, and a third
model integrating edge-to-edge OLED screen in particular and marking important
differences compared to the rest of the range.
But the latest report issued on the basis of sources close to
Apple subcontractors indicate that the three models would be built
with a mixture of aluminum and glass, and would integrate a
wireless induction charging technology.
It could also be, still according to the report, that the glass used
on the rear of the case allowsbest transfer
energybetween the charging pad and the phone battery, by
compared to aluminum and plastic as seen on many phones
Android already equipped. Wireless charging of the iPhone 8 would therefore be
more efficient, fasterthan what we have seen so far in
the material.
On the other hand, the charger could only be supplied with the model(s)
the most high-end. Also, the idea of remote wireless charging
(several
tens of centimeters) is moving away, for the 2017 iPhone in any case.
As usual, this information isto take with
tweezers, given that these are rumors and reports issued
based on unverified sources.
