An alleged iPhone 8 schematic leaked today features a dual-lens vertically aligned rear camera and hints at wireless charging.
Posted by KK, the schematic does not have a rear Touch ID sensor; however, there is an interesting circular shape in the center of the device which could be for some type of wireless charging module.
A few hours before posting the schematic, KK tweeted "#iphone8 supports wireless charging within 5 meters, is this something u guys want?"
Notably, Powermat CEO Elad Dubzinski recently claimed that Apple announced wireless charging as a standard feature for its next generation smartphone.
It's difficult to determine the authenticity of this type of leak; however, Apple has long been rumored to be working on wireless charging and its vertical cameras align with several other reports.

Anyone can try something out of purported schematics in order to draw attention, get some easy hits and ad revenue money. ''Tis not the time for real leaks yet ;)

Rip headphone jack lol yea it took time to get used to but if you got iPhone 7 at launch your over it by now I have had one instance that was annoying but was from getting non mfi lighting headphones but just like cables they stopped working so got mfi pair and all good now I rarely have charge issues but about to take a 16 hr flight so look forward to adding wireless so then no more reason for headphone jack

If it's the 10th anniversary, they should return the head jack and leave it out in the 7S models.
