On Wednesday Apple announced that its line of iPhone 12 models would include a MagSafe charger that will enable a new charging and accessory ecosystem. Although older iPhones don’t have the magnets that the iPhone 12s do, they can still be charged with a MagSafe charger, although not at the full 15W that the newer models can handle.

I didn’t even know the iPhone 8 had cordless charging, so I’ve learnt something new over the past week, iPhone 11 Pro has arrived along with the Series 6 watch, its awesome. Does everything I want of a watch and more..
Thank you! For some reason I thought that my iPhone X did not have wireless charging. I just tried it in our new car which has a built-in Qi charger.
