iPhone 8 leak suggests new gadget will drop ANOTHER key feature and force you to buy a costly accessory

If you're planning on upgrading to the next version of
the iPhone this year, you may have to get used to
another big change.
A new leak suggests the highly anticipated gadget
may drop the traditional charging cable in favour of
wireless charging capabilities.
Apple made the bold decision to remove the 3.5mm
headphone jack for the iPhone 7 and dropping the
charging cable completely could cause an additional
headache.
Especially since customers would need to invest in a
wireless charging pad that may be sold separately.
Pictures of these charging pads have been circulating
on Chinese social media site Weibo.
Although the charging pads appear to have been
developed for the iPhone 8 , there is a suggestion
they will work with the iPhone 7s and 7s Plus as well.
All three phones are expected to be revealed by Apple
at an event in September.
Other phones, such as the Samsung Galaxy S8,
already include wireless charging technology, but so
far the technology has failed to go mainstream.
A report in Bloomberg last year claimed that Apple
was working on "cutting edge" wireless technology
that would allow future iPhones and iPads to be
placed further away from charging mats than current
smartphones.
The unnamed sources said Apple was working on
overcoming "technical barriers including loss of power
over distance," and that the technology will feature in
iPhones coming out in 2017.
