The leak reveals a new magnetic iPhone case with MagSafe and two official Apple wireless chargers called MagSafe Charger and MagSafe Duo Charger. One or both of them can have an output of 15 watts.
The leaked information also suggests that the iPhone 12 could have magnetic positioning that would put the phones in the correct position on the charging pad.
Another area of speculation is whether the new iPhone can be reverse charged - when a phone that can be charged wirelessly can also function as a charging dock and be used to wirelessly charge another device. Competitors like that Samsung Galaxy S20, the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and the OnePlus 8 Pro have wireless and reverse wireless charging, so Apple could take the plunge in this direction, at least with the iPhone 12 Pro models (rumors have it that there will be four different iPhone 12 models: the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max and Telephone 12 mini).
To find out if any of these rumors are true, you'll have to wait until the official Tuesday announcement - here is how to watch the Apple event live.
