iPhone MagSafe magnets

Hello. I have always gotten a MagBak case for my iPhones (link here)- https://magbak.com/products/magbak-for-iphone-11-pro-max


That case has magnets in the case. It allows me to stick my phone to anything metal (fridge, gym equipment, etc.)


so my question is- Do the new iPhone 12s have magnets inside that will allow the phone to attach to anything metal like a fridge?

Or are the magnets in the accessories? Then if magnets are in the accessories like cases, will the phone stick to a metal surface when in that case?


thanks much

Since no one has an iPhone 12 yet, I'm not anyone can provide a factual answer. This is a user to user only forum.


I did find this image, from a source about the MagSafe assembly in iPhone, which shows there is a magnet in the phone for the MagSafe charger or accessory to align with. Whether that means it will attach to metal objects on its own, will need to be tested once people get their phones in a week.
