As per the new manufacturing rights awarded to the tech giant, the company's new products-- iPhones and iPads in future might also feature magnetic chargers.

According to initial details, the handsets and other gadgets would not feature a Lightning port for battery charging and data transfer.

The US Patent and Trademark Office earlier this week granted Apple a patent for a new magnetic connector capable of transmitting power to the iPhone.

This comes after rumors that Apple is considering removing the Lightning port from its smartphones in the future.

Based on the illustrations, this connector would replace the Lightning port as a new way to recharge the iPhone.
