- iOS 26 will unlock additional load speeds on iPhone 16 models
- 25W will be possible using third -party chargers
- We should see the final version of the software unfold in September
Since the announcement of iOS 26 in June, it has been through several beta test cycles before its full version scheduled for next month, and we now know that it will bring an additional bonus to existing iPhone 16 handsets: faster wireless load.
As spotted by MacrumorsiOS 26 unlocks all the capacities of the Qi2 wireless load standard on the iPhone 16, which means wireless load speeds up to 25W on Qi -thirds chargers. Previously, the limit was 15 W.
To get the best load speeds, you need several different elements to align yourself: phone hardware, load standard and software management. The Qi2 standard has been built in the iPhone 16 handsets when they launched Last September, then updated to support 25W in July.
Currently, this upgrade of 25W has not been unlocked on the 16 iPhone series – you can only obtain 25W wireless charges of the official Apple Magsafe loaders. When iOS 26 is deployed in its entirety, this will change.
Wireless booss all around
Thanks to improved load capacities, you can get an iPhone 16 or The iPhone 16 pro up to 50% zero battery as little as 30 minutes, according to Apple’s own figures for its Magsafe product range.
Belkin quickly moved and published three new charges to take advantage of the incoming update. It is not yet something that Apple has specifically referred, although it could change at the end of the beta period iOS 26.
This also confirms that the iPhone 17 handsets will support the latest Qi2.2 standard, with a wireless charge up to 25W, as has been widely planned – although the third -party charger support obtains a bump up to 25W, we could see Magsafe’s capacities to go up to 50W, according to a leak.
It is almost certain that Apple will unveil the iPhone 17 series in September, and the indications are that something could happen around September 9. As always, we will bring you all the news and ads as they occur.
