Apple’s upcoming iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will support 40W wired fast charging and 20W MagSafe charging, according to a rumor currently circulating in China.
Currently, the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro models are capable of maximum charging speeds of up to 27W with a suitable USB-C power adapter, while official Apple and authorized third-party MagSafe chargers can wirelessly charge the iPhone 15 models at up to 15W. All four iPhone 15 models can charge up to 50% in approximately 30 minutes with a 20W or higher power adapter, which is the same as Apple’s previous iPhone 13 and iPhone 14 models.
According to It is the houseThis is expected to change for the Pro models in Apple’s upcoming iPhone 16 lineup, with wired charging being increased to 40W and wireless charging to 20W in order to “balance and improve the issue of increased charging time caused by increased battery capacity.”
This reasoning refers to another rumor that, with the exception of the iPhone 16 Plus, Apple’s iPhone 16 series models will feature larger batteries than their predecessors.
The claim that charging power has been increased resurrects a similar rumor that we covered here at Mac Rumors Almost a year ago, it was announced that the iPhone 16 lineup would adopt stacked battery technology, along with 40W wired charging and 20W charging via MagSafe. Stacked batteries can result in higher capacity and longer battery life.
It’s unclear why this rumor is circulating in Asia again, but given that we’re only two months away from Apple’s unveiling of its new flagship devices, there might be some truth to it. The iPhone 16 series is expected to launch around mid-September.
