iPhone 17 Pro Rumored to Include Reverse Wireless Charging Capability

Apple is reportedly testing a feature that would allow the iPhone 17 Pro to wirelessly charge other devices, though its inclusion in the final product remains unconfirmed.

Overview

  • Leaks suggest the iPhone 17 Pro may support 7.5W reverse wireless charging for accessories like AirPods and Apple Watch.
  • This feature would allow the iPhone to wirelessly transfer power to compatible devices placed on its back panel.
  • Reverse wireless charging has been anticipated since the iPhone 12, but Apple has yet to fully implement it in any model.
  • The feature's potential implementation would leverage the iPhone's existing MagSafe magnets for a more secure charging connection.
  • While testing is reportedly underway, it is unclear if this functionality will be enabled when the iPhone 17 Pro launches, expected in September 2025.
