the iPhone 13 should see the light of day in early September, and the indiscretions, rumors and information continue to trickle in. With this time, information that interests us, that of wireless charging.

In the world of the smartphone, there is one criterion that is most important, it is the autonomy of the smartphone. It is true that we are far from the time when with a Nokia 3210 we lasted a whole week without charging our smartphone.

So, yes of course, the use was not the same, no screen full of color, no greedy software and no Wi-Fi. As a result, the autonomy and the charging mode of a smartphone takes its importance nowadays.

Wireless charging for the iPhone 13.

While charging technology has evolved considerably with the USB-C port and “super charge” type transformers, wireless technology has also evolved. So much so that it is increasingly installed on smartphones. To the point that one in four telephones in the world has it.

To reread: One billion smartphones in the world are equipped with wireless charging.

The iPhone 13 should also benefit from this technology which consists of placing your smartphone on a “charging pad” so that it charges. Certainly it will not go as fast as plugging in the cable, but suddenly no longer need a cable.

Wireless Reverse charging for the iPhone 13.

New rumors related to the size of the charging device on the future iPhone 13 suggest that Apple's future smartphone could not only be wireless charging (qi) compatible, but that it could also charge any other device equipped with qi wireless charging technology.

If that turns out to be the case, that would mean you could charge your Airpods Pro or your iPad through your iPhone 13. Well of course, if you use your iPhone 13 to charge another device wirelessly it will discharge your iPhone, but well, that's the price to pay.

Note that with this integration, Apple would join the competition in this segment. In fact, Huawei, Samsung and other smartphone manufacturers have been offering this feature on their high-end smartphones for several years now.

But hey, it remains for the moment still in the state of rumor and speculation. Indeed, we will have to wait for the official release of the smartphone which should be done during the month of September 2021. In fact, it is generally during this period that Apple makes its "Keynote" and reveals its novelties to us, in particular its new iPhone.

Price and Availability.

We should therefore certainly see the iPhone 13 be available for purchase at the end of September-mid-October. As for its price, there is no doubt that it will be at least equivalent to that of the iPhone 12 or even more expensive. It will therefore most certainly be necessary to count on a price which will be around 1200€ to acquire this new model equipped with reverse wireless charging technology.
