Apple's next-generation iPhone 8 will provide Smart Connector for "wireless" charging. Smart Connector also supports attachment synchronization to AR and VR.
It is worth mentioning that Apple currently uses the Smart Connector in its flagship iPad Pro lineup. The iPad Pro model's Smart Connector is basically designed to support accessories such as keyboards. The magnetic Smart Connector was first introduced on the 12.9-inch iPad Pro in 2015.
This is the first rumor that the iPhone will be equipped with a Smart Connector. Last year, there was a rumored picture before the launch of the iPhone 7 Plus, including a phone with a connector.
In addition, people have been rumored that Apple will add wireless charging capabilities to the iPhone 8. Reuters also reported that they quoted a source as saying that at least five different teams within Apple have been developing wireless charging. Recently, Apple has also joined the Wireless Power Consortium, a group of 214 companies that are committed to promoting wireless charging through the “Qi†standard.
Foreign media also reported that the Smart Connector on the iPhone 8 will also be used for AR and VR accessories. It also pointed out that the new Apple TV is also under development. Obviously it is also possible to support VR and AR.
Apple is expected to release the iPhone 8 in September, but according to foreign media, due to technical difficulties with 3D sensing technology and OLED curved screen, the mobile phone may be delayed for several weeks. iPhone 8 may not support physical home keyboards like Galaxy S8. In addition, Touch ID may be embedded in the True Tone display.
