All of the new iPhones next year could be capable of wireless charging
The Apple Watch is already capable of wireless charging through a puck-like induction pad. Samsung's high-end phones have sported induction charging recently as well.
The big question is whether Apple will include a wireless charger in the box with next year's iPhone, or whether it will be an accessory that is sold separately.
Pegatron will be assembling the wireless chargers, according to the note seen by 9to5Mac.
Last week, Kuo laid out the current plan the Asian supply chain is hearing for next year's iPhone, which is expected to launch in the third quarter of 2017.

TFT-LCD is the current screen technology that iPhones use. OLED is a next-generation screen technology with deeper blacks and more accurate colors.
The highest-end iPhone will be the 5.1-inch OLED phone, with a "new look" stemming from a virtual home button and fingerprint.
Here are more rumors and details about next year's iPhone.
