Will magnets disappear from the iPhone? Apple mulls excluding MagSafe from the standard spec

Apple is reportedly considering removing MagSafe from standard iPhone models or offering it only through a paid case.

The move would support stronger margins and clearer product differentiation, but could also hurt the brand image.

If a key iPhone feature is no longer standard, consumer backlash and inconvenience may increase.

Industry watchers see the debate as part of Apple’s broader premium, profit-focused product strategy.
