One of the more persistent rumors for the next iPhone (some call it the iPhone 13) is that Apple will scrap the Lightning port entirely. And with the launch last year of MagSafe charging on the iPhone 12 series, it’s not hard to envision a future where we rely solely on wireless charging to power our phone’s battery. An iPhone 12 on a MagSafe charger can go from 0-50% battery charge in an hour. This is hardly a replacement for the much faster charging you get with a Lightning cable and wall charger. The new OnePlus 9 Pro might hold an answer to the port-less iPhone riddle. For weeks, OnePlus hyped the phone’s cameras, designed in partnership with Hasselblad, the legendary Scandinavian camera company. You’d think the cameras would be the best feature, but they aren’t. Instead, it’s the OnePlus 9 Pro’s ability to wirelessly charge at 50W that really stands out.
