According to the regulatory filing on Taiwan’s NCC certification website, Apple is going to the next generation QI 2.2 wireless charging standard. Qi2.2 Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) is updated to QE Standard, which manufactures the reforms offered with QE 2.1.
Viewed by 91mobiles.comThe filing reveals the two new Magsef Charger Models – A3503 and A3502 – which supports the upgrade QI 2.2 standard. Chargers feature a white Pak design familiar with cables hanging in length 2-meter and 1-meter respectively. The new Magsafe Chargers have been rated for 45W output (15V × 3A) when a compatible USB-C is connected to the power adapter.
This is mainly a remarkable upgradation due to rapid charging speed. The QE2 is maximum at standard 15W (although the iPhone 16 models support the upgraded magsef charging – with a 30W charger, iPhones can charge up to 25W). WPC has since issued the QI 2.1 standard, but no apple device officially supports it.
Testing documents suggest that chargers work with equipment from iPhone 16 to iPhone 11, indicating that Qi will have widespread compatibility with existing equipment of 2.2 puck, but charging speed is going to be limited when using the old model. To take advantage of fast charging speed, equipment will need a uniform advanced charging chip, similar Samsung’s Power Management Integrated Circuit (PMIC),
In addition to rapid charging, QE 2.2 provides better magnetic alignment and charging efficiency than its predecessor. The standard also has backward compatibility with the old QE Chargers.
Apple has not officially announced these new chargers, but his presence in Taiwan’s regulator database indicates that we are likely to see a public release in the coming months. This also increases the possibility that the upcoming iPhone 17 models will support the new charging standard. Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 17 lineup around September, while the comprehensive industry is expected to launch the QE 2.2-compatible phone, charger and goods later this year.
