Cupertino, Dec 17: Apple is reportedly planning to introduce MagSafe magnetic wireless charging support on its upcoming iPhone 17e, marking a key upgrade over its predecessor, the iPhone 16e. Unlike the 16e, which offered only basic wireless charging without magnetic alignment, the 17e is expected to include a built-in magnet array that enables users to snap compatible chargers and accessories onto the back of the phone for faster, more convenient wireless charging.
Industry reports indicate that this move will address one of the biggest limitations of Apple’s recent budget iPhone lineup and bring the 17e closer in functionality to higher-end models. With magnetic wireless charging, users should experience more reliable alignment and improved charging speeds, as well as access to the broader ecosystem of MagSafe accessories such as wallets, battery packs and mounts. The addition of this feature could make the iPhone 17e a more attractive option for buyers seeking Apple’s ecosystem at a lower price point.
