Recent reports state that iPhone 8 will be able to charge through an induction pad, a technology already being used in the Apple Watch. Although the Samsung smartphones that currently feature wireless charging have plastic as well as metal cases, the upcoming 2017 iPhone model will spec a total glass body design.

Experts believe that the all glass body will help Apple iPhone 8 feature a faster-charging speed compared to its earlier predecessors and will also minimize disruption from frequency interference while wireless charging. Apple may only provide a wireless charger with the more expensive and higher capacity models, for now, however, the tech giant is expected to take a huge leap in wireless charging by the end of 2018.
