There have been plenty of iPhone 8 rumours floating around the internet, for example, there are expected to be three versions of the next iPhone which is scheduled to launch later this year. Previous rumours suggested that there would be one 4.7-inch iPhone 8 and two 5.5-inch variants and one of these will also sport an OLED display.

 The iPhone 8 will also come with a glass back and stainless steel chassis as suggested by previous claims. The handsets are expected to have a complete overhaul when it comes to the design and looks.

However, latest reports suggest a new feature that was previously unknown. The new iPhones are expected to have wireless charging. Lite-on will be one of the suppliers that Apple is going to be using for wireless charging components.

“Taiwan-based Lite-On Semiconductor, a maker of discrete and analogue IC components, has entered the supply chain for the next-generation iPhone 8 by providing GPP bridge rectifiers for the support of fast wireless charging, according to a recent Chinese-language Commercial Times report.

Lite-On Semi has reportedly obtained half of the orders for GPP bridge rectifiers that will be used in the wireless charger for the upcoming iPhones, the report cited industry sources as saying."

The new iPhone is expected to launch in September 2017 and we will keep reporting on new information about the handsets when we come across some more news.
