Apple confirms MagSafe charging for folding iPhone Duo

Apple has confirmed that its upcoming folding iPhone Duo will support MagSafe wireless charging, settling a major rumor. The feature will be available on the device, though it will charge slower than a wired cable. MagSafe charging on the iPhone Duo uses Qi2 25W technology, allowing the device to reach 50% battery in 30 minutes. In comparison, a 60W wired charger achieves the same 50% in an unspecified shorter time, though Apple notes the difference is not significant. The confirmation comes from Apple's technical specifications, despite the feature being omitted from the keynote presentation. This news will particularly please car owners with MagSafe mounts, as the iPhone Duo will now work with their existing accessories.
