Highlights: 2019 iPhones to come with reverse wireless charging New iPhones will be able to charge each other and the new AirPods Larger batteries are also expected on the 2019 iPhones The first round of 2019 iPhone predictions from famous Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo came back in February, when he reported that the next iPhone flagships will feature improved Face ID, reverse wireless charging, bigger batteries and a frosted glass casing. Now, in a note sent out to investors, Kuo has reiterated the reverse wireless charging feature and large batteries on the 2019 iPhones. Reverse wireless charging on 2019 iPhones could enable them to charge the new AirPods or even other iPhones wirelessly. Any other Qi-based devices will also be supported. The large batteries, in this case, will be helpful. “We expect the new 2H19 iPhone models will support two-way wireless charging. Though the iPhone is not the first high-end smartphone to be equipped with two-way wireless charging, this new function could make it more convenient for users to charge the new AirPods and create a better integrated user experience of the iPhone and AirPods,” Kuo wrote in his note to investors. According to Kuo, Compeq is will supply Apple with the battery boards, while STMicro will supply the two-way wireless charging controller for the 2019 iPhones. The analyst had previously revealed that he expects three new iPhones to launch this year. The screen sizes of the 2019 iPhones are expected to remain the same as the 2018 lot, i.e 6.5-inch and 5.8-inch phones with OLED displays and a 6.1-inch LCD model. Kuo believes that the 6.5-inch iPhone, successor to the iPhone XS Max, could see a battery capacity increase of 10% to 15%. The 5.8-inch OLED iPhone could see a battery capacity growth of 20% to 25%. He predicts a 0 - 5% battery increase in the 6.1-inch LCD model. In his last note, Kuo also said that the 2019 LCD iPhone will be upgraded to 4GB RAM, up from 3GB on the current iPhone XR. He added that the 5.8-inch OLED iPhone model could come with Dual SIM Dual Standby. The most recent confirmation of the design of the iPhone XI came from leaked schematics of the phone, which once again confirmed Digit’s January leak. The schematics showed a square camera bump, housing the triple camera setup expected to appear on the upcoming iPhone XI (iPhone 11). This was the third such confirmation after we leaked the first-ever iPhone XI renders in partnership with OnLeaks.
