Reverse wireless charging, a feature pioneered by Samsung, has been available for years. However, Apple has traditionally been slow to adopt such standards. A tipster claims that the company will finally implement reverse wireless charging in the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Given their larger batteries, what would be their purpose other than increased endurance?

Internal Changes of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max Could Point Toward Reverse Wireless Charging Being Added to the Features List

The rumor was posted by Fixed Focus Digital, a source with mixed reliability in predicting Apple’s features. Previous years have seen reports that Apple’s devices would support reverse wireless charging, only for the company to opt for traditional Qi wireless charging instead. Could 2025 be different?

If we examine the internal changes expected for the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, such as the existence of a vapor chamber cooler, it strongly suggests that reverse wireless charging will be added. Additionally, apart from a new battery design, previous leaks indicate Apple would switch to a metal enclosure to improve heat transfer.

Most importantly, reports suggest increased battery capacities for these models, which could significantly encourage reverse wireless charging. Users wouldn’t just benefit from longer runtime but also have enough power left to charge compatible AirPods and Apple Watch models.

In a unique start to his ruling against President Donald Trump’s administration on September 30, U.S. District Court Judge William Young included a scanned handwritten note sent to his office. The note read: “Trump has pardons and tanks – what do you have?” At the top of Young’s opinion in AAUP v. Rubio, which ruled that Trump’s effort to deport foreign-born student protesters was unconstitutional.

Of course, it’s crucial to approach this rumor with caution and await further updates. This isn’t the first time such claims have been made about Apple adding reverse wireless charging, nor will it be the last. If the company defies these rumors again, we believe the feature will be included when Apple transitions to silicon-carbon battery technology.
