ITHome: iPhone 16 Pro to Get 40W Fast Charging
Apple smartphones scheduled for autumn 2024 will receive fast charging for the first time, the Chinese publication ITHome reports, citing sources.
According to sources, fast 40-watt wired charging will appear in the flagship iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max smartphones. The devices will also support 20-watt wireless charging. Most likely, the charging speed in the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus will remain the same.
The current top models iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max can be charged with a maximum power of 27 watts, but only when using a proprietary adapter with a USB-C port. The maximum wireless charging speed of MagSafe is 15 watts.
According to insiders, support for powerful charging will solve the problem of increased charging time caused by the increase in battery capacity. The iPhone 16 series models are expected to receive a larger battery.
The article says that reports of new Apple smartphones have become more frequent due to the imminent release of the devices. The announcement of the iPhone 16 series devices is expected in mid-September.
Earlier, journalists from 9to5Mac reported that Apple has planned the release of several gadgets for the fall. In addition to the iPhone 16 series, the company is expected to introduce new headphones, smart watches, tablets, and computers.
