One of the biggest features that are expected to come in iPhone 8 is much awaited wireless charging. News about the feature has excited me as well, but there’s a chance that it would be slow compared to the existing standards.

Japanese site Macotakara claims the iPhone 8 will use inductive charging at 7.5W, which is half the speed of the latest Qi 1.2 standards. While wireless charging is coming to the iPhone 8, it is likely to be slower than the charging setup used by several Android smartphones. Nevertheless, it will be still faster than the existing 5W charger.
It’s also being reported that the iPhone 8 will use Qi wireless charging standard, the device won’t work with third-party chargers. This is primarily because Apple has its MFi (Made for iPhone) certification program in place. In other words, users will have no option but to either get genuine Apple or certified chargers.
This also means that the iPhone 8 wireless charging will be considerably slower, and is likely to take much longer to reach full charge. If true, it might be wise and faster to just stick to the standard charger for a speedy charge. It is currently unknown if Apple has tied up with third-party accessory manufacturers for other variants of their chargers. If the iPhone is charged using any other charger, the device will simply not accept the charge as it will most likely come inbuilt with a Mfi license detector.

The smaller PCB also comes with a support for larger battery something that has been a constant demand from iPhone users.
