Another key iPhone 8 wireless charging parameter leak! Does it affect the iPhone14?

Earlier, media outlets revealed a prototype of what appears to be an iPhone8 wireless charger, including Lightning as an input power port for the first time. Later, foreign media analyzed the latest firmware of HomePod and found evidence that Apple had already reserved wireless charging for iPhone 8, which further confirmed the existence of this feature. Recently, an engineer close to Apple's supply chain revealed to the charging head network that iPhone 8's wireless charge Tx transmitter power is 10W, Rx receiver power is 7.5W.

At present, the mainstream wireless charging mobile phones, among which 5W and 10W have existed in the market for a period of time, the latest technology is 15W wireless fast charging. Apple's 10W wireless transmitter pad on the iPhone 8 shows that it's not pushing the envelope technologically. It's a mystery whether the iPhone 8 will use inductive or magnetic resonance, or even both, when it comes to wireless charging protocols, but Apple's usual maverick style is "different."

Another important message from the latest firmware code for HomePod is that Apple's iPhone 8 will support fast charging. Combined with the power of 7.5W wireless transmitter board, it is not difficult to find that Apple is determined to upgrade the 10-year-old 5V 1A charger. In order to make the wireless transmitter board with 7.5W reflection power, it will be possible to match the power adapter with 5V 3A (15W). It also reinforces the persistent rumors that the iPhone 8 will come with a USB PD Type-C charger and Type-C to Lightning data charging cable.
