Apple is cooking up something big for its iPhone 17 series, and a new leak suggests wireless charging is about to get a serious boost. Fresh certifications hint at a revamped MagSafe charger that promises faster speeds and slicker performance, potentially setting the stage for a charging revolution when Apple’s next flagship lands this fall.

Spotted by 91 Mobiles, two new MagSafe chargers—models A3503 with a 2m cable and A3502 with a 1m cord—have popped up in Taiwan’s NCC database. While they look nearly identical to the current MagSafe charging pad introduced with the iPhone 16 series, these chargers pack a punch with support for the Wireless Power Consortium’s Qi 2.2 standard, rolled out earlier this year. Qi 2.2 brings beefier 50W charging, sharper magnetic alignment, and better efficiency, and Apple’s new chargers are certified to hit 45W (15V × 3A) when paired with a compatible USB PD charger.

This is a big leap from the iPhone 16’s 25W wireless charging cap, hinting that the iPhone 17 series might crank up both wireless and wired speeds—currently also stuck at 25W for wired charging. Faster charging means less time tethered to a cable, a win for users juggling busy days. The longer 2m cable option also adds some flexibility for desk or bedside setups, while the 1m version keeps things compact. For context, the Galaxy S25 series supports 15W wireless charging, and its successor might retain the same.

With the iPhone 17 expected to debut in September 2025, these chargers could ship alongside it, possibly sold separately. Apple is doubling down on MagSafe’s magnetic precision, which snaps perfectly onto compatible iPhones. While details like pricing or exact iPhone 17 charging specs are still under wraps, this move signals Apple’s ready to compete with Android rivals boasting 50W+ wireless speeds.
