Could it finally happen? Reports on Thursday suggest the Apple iPhone 11 would come with a USB-C charger as well as a lightning to USB-C cable in the box.
This means, iPhone users could at last experience fast-charging support, something that OnePlus, Huawei and Samsung users have been using for quite sometime now.
Apple would do away with its original 5-watt charger and instead include a USB-C charger that would enable twice-as-fast iPhone charging times without ditching the lightning connector, MacRumors reported on Wednesday.
Apple's upcoming iPhone 11 line-up is also expected to feature company's new A13 chip.
The iPhone-maker would launch three iPhone 11 models this year -- The D43 (internal name) would replace the iPhone XS Max, the D42 (internal name) would replace the iPhone XS and the N104 (internal name) would replace the iPhone XR.
Known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo had earlier suggested that the upcoming iPhone models would be equipped with reverse wireless charging but we’re yet to hear further confirmations on that. But even it does, Apple clearly won’t get the laurel for being the ‘first in the industry’ with the feature, which already belongs to Huawei.
In addition to different charging support and possibly work with Apple Pencil, the iPhone 11 would reportedly come with the same OLED displays that have been used for the Samsung Galaxy S10 and Note 10 this year.
