Which iPhones Have Wireless Charging?

Wireless Qi charging has been around since 2012 and has been incorporated into the work of 488 manufacturers throughout the world including Apple, Sony, Samsung and, of course, MAGFAST. Whilst many mobile phones boast the Qi wireless charging capability, market leaders Apple waited until 2017 to adapt their phones to utilise the revolutionary tech.
Not being able to charge through metal phone bases made of, say, aluminum, it wasn’t until the launch of the iPhone 8 with a glass back that the benefits of wireless Qi charging were discovered by Apple users.

Which iPhone can I charge wirelessly?

Requiring a glass back to the phone to make the Qi capability work, it may come as a surprise that Apple – often the leaders in product development – didn’t incorporate this until the iPhone 8 series but this may well have been a deliberate decision. There were so many other types of wireless charging technology around that, just maybe, they wanted to assess the market and see what tech they should embrace going forward. Qi dominated and is now incorporated on a vast scale globally.
