Apple iPhone assembler Wistron has reportedly confirmed that the new 5.5-inch iPhone launching later this year will be waterproof and support wireless charging, reports Nikkei.
"Assembly process for the previous generations of [iPhones] have not changed much, though new features like waterproof and wireless charging now require some different testing, and waterproof function will alter the assembly process a bit," CEO Robert Hwang told reporters after the company's annual shareholder meeting Wednesday.
Wistron is said to be splitting orders for the upcoming 5.5-inch 'iPhone 7s Plus' with Foxconn.
Apple is also also expected to unveil a new 4.7-inch iPhone 7s and a 5.8-inch iPhone 8. Alleged front and rear covers for all three devices recently leaked. You can check those out here.
