The tech is pretty rudimentary. They just need to make sure that the iPhones have the NFC and qi coils near the edge of the box. Then they’re basically just updating boxed phones like you would update a mesh router node.
The best part about this is that it’s so damn simple. It’s one of those “why didn’t someone else think of this” things.
