Apple’s 2022 iPhone SE Packs a New A15 Bionic Chip but Does Not Include MagSafe Nor Faster Wireless Charging
Apple’s lineup has been onboard the MagSafe bandwagon ever since the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro came out in 2020. But only the iPhone SE was left in the dark since it wasn’t updated at the time with new features. Today, Apple announced a brand new iPhone SE with the powerful new A15 Bionic chip, better image processing, 5G and more. At this point, you’d expect the iPhone SE to embrace MagSafe, since the AirPods lineup has done so as well. But it’s a resounding no for the 2022 iPhone SE on that end. It does not feature the new MagSafe magnets which means you can’t go out and slap a magnetic wallet onto its back. But keep in mind that the iPhone SE will charge normally using the MagSafe wireless charger, just without the magnet fun. Speaking of wireless charging, Apple didn’t bump up the wireless charging speeds either. It’s still capped at 7.5W given that it is reserving faster wireless charging for MagSafe compatible devices only. We’re only assuming that Apple did this to save on cost, nothing else.
