The diagram of the supposed iPhone 8 is enriched: charging with the Qi standard and other details

A new scheme allegedly
of iPhone 8 was released today on the social platform Weibo, the equivalent
Chinese from American Twitter. It is in fact a capture on which we
sees the details and locations of the different components of the iPhone. This
new image allows you to refine the information
received yesterday with a slightly similar design
. Qi wireless charging
is now confirmed, while there are no traces of a Touch ID sensor
at the back:

Difficult to say if this schematic iPhone 8 would be the final version of
the device expected to arrive at the end of this year, but he corroborated in
in any case many recent rumors and predictions.

Already, there is once again talk of a dual sensor camera
placed vertically, unlike the current iPhone 7 on which both
sensors are aligned horizontally. Difficult to find at the moment
reason for this choice, if not a construction strategy for a
optimization of space inside the device.

Also note the central circle, in green on the image, for which a
legend indicates the title "Qi". There no longer seems to be any doubt about this
phone detailed here, wireless charging with Qi technology is required.
In this regard, we recall that a few months ago, Apple
joined the Qi wireless charging consortium
.

Finally, note the absence of a jack socket, which is very logical and in the
continuity of the iPhone, the presence of a Lightning port, 4 antennas and
other elements in place which are much more classic.

The latest information and leaks, however reliable they may be, support
the thesis of Qi wireless charging for the iPhone 8. And while there is
several months, some saw possibilities of recharging the iPhone at
distance of several meters, barring any major surprises, and with this choice of Qi,
the iPhone 8 will probably charge in the traditional way for charging
wirelessly, or on a charging base most likely, as they already do
certain smartphones, including the latest Galaxy S8.
