The countdown is on. Apple is preparing to launch the iPhone 17 series this September 2025, and excitement is already running high. 

As always, reports and leaks are surfacing online, giving us a clearer picture of what might be in store. This year’s line-up is expected to include four models: the iPhone 17, the lighter iPhone 17 Air, and the premium iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. 

With expectations building, it looks as though Apple could be gearing up for one of its biggest updates in years.

One of the most talked about changes is the possibility of reverse wireless charging coming to the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. For Apple users, this could mean the ability to charge accessories like AirPods or the Apple Watch simply by placing them on the back of the phone. While some Android devices have had this feature for a while, Apple has held back—until now, perhaps. If this report proves true, it would be a game-changer for those who carry multiple Apple products every day, offering far more convenience on the go.

Of course, Apple has been reported to be testing this technology for years, and insiders have suggested that a 7.5W version has been in development. The difference this time is the confidence of the leaks. Industry watchers seem convinced that the Pro models are the most likely to debut this long-awaited feature, which would make sense given their status as the showcase devices in Apple’s line-up.

What makes the report even more exciting is how it could change everyday use. 

It may not sound revolutionary at first, but the ability to give your AirPods a quick top-up without a cable, or keep your Apple Watch alive until you get home, could reduce clutter and make life noticeably easier. For Apple, it would also bring the iPhone into line with competitors who have been offering similar features for years.

We won’t have to wait much longer to know whether the leaks are accurate. Apple’s September event is just around the corner, and if the reports are correct, the iPhone 17 series could be the most versatile yet. With potential charging upgrades, design refinements and performance improvements, there’s plenty for Apple fans to look forward to.
