Case And Wireless Charging Accessory Makers Reaffirm Rumored Features Expected In iPhone 8

Notice, that the camera module is vertical, which falls in line with previous design leaks. There's also a lack of headphone jack and opening for a TouchID sensor on the back, which was mentioned as a possibility. Not much else can be gathered from the image though.
Meanwhile, the CEO of wireless charging pads Powermat, was recently quoted in a press release:
“With the recent announcement by Apple that wireless charging will become a standard feature in the next iPhone, we are finally at the threshold of mainstream adoption."
Apple did join the Wireless Power Consortium in February but has yet to announce such a feature, meaning it's likely that he unintentionally spoke about unreleased information.
Its not unusual for manufacturers to provide dummies of upcoming devices to accessory makers in order to make a perfectly-fitting case or other accessories ready before global release. However, being that it is way too early in the year for an iPhone release, it's best to take this with a grain of salt.
