Apple’s 2019 iPhones to come with two-way wireless charging feature, bigger batteries

[welcomewiki]

With the iPhone 8-series and iPhone X, Apple introduced glass back design with wireless charging capabilities. While the feature is now commonly found on most flagship smartphones, the likes of Galaxy S10 and Huawei Mate 20 Pro went a step ahead by introducing reverse wireless charging. This means you can use these smartphones as a wireless charging mat to charge other wireless charging enabled devices. Now, reports indicate that the next-gen iPhones too could come with support for a similar feature.

Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, in his latest investor note*(via MacRumors) has confirmed that the new iPhones come with two-way wireless charging feature, allowing users to charge other devices like the newly launched AirPods, and the Apple Watch too. It will support Qi-standard and will charge other smartphones too. Kuo also mentioned that* Apple will increase the battery capacity on the new iPhones too.

The 6.5-inch iPhone XS Max successor is likely to see an increase of 10-15 percent in battery capacity, whereas the 5.8-inch OLED iPhone XS successor could see a 20-25 percent increase in battery capacity. The affordable iPhone XR successor, on the other hand, isn’t expected to see much gain in battery capacity, and even if it does, it will be a marginal five percent.
