For the iPhone 12 (Affiliate link) they have apparently also planned something in this direction: A MagSafe Smart Battery Case is currently in development, is it[called in an assessment by the Bloomberg agency. This MagSafe case sticks magnetically to the iPhone and charges it wirelessly, so far, so useful, but …
The whole project is still on the brink
Maybe the new charging cases won’t work, because Apple is stuck in development again. This is currently still struggling with difficulties, it is said, for example with the software. This often erroneously reports an overheating of the case, which is not there. It is unclear whether and when the problems will be resolved or whether the product will be canceled.

There were always real ones Overheating of prototypes, sometimes to insurmountable problems with the software. Against this background, the question must be allowed: Is Apple’s propagated strategy of a wireless future completely without cables really more than an attempt to rebel against the bitter truth of continuing failure?
