Apple has not got rid of iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, but the new major feature has been added to three new handsets for 2017 as Apple has been behind in this area. Qi wireless charging (pronounced “chee”) has also been added to it. Wireless charging is no doubt now a part and parcel of Samsung staple as it already works with both the Qi as well as PMA standards. While Apple only mentions Qi support but PMA, is a new key addition that has made a demand for wireless charging in a way that Samsung, LG, Microsoft, and Nokia have not been able to achieve earlier.
The iPhone X, iPhone 8 along with iPhone 8 Plus are undoubtedly the first phones to be launched by Apple iOS 11 software, which is an improvement for Siri, which is the lock screen as well as notifications.
