Apple brings back the MagSafe Battery Pack exclusively for the iPhone Air, but will it work with other iPhones?

Looks like I got an answer to one of my biggest requests, but being limited to only one device is a miss. There are still a lot of unanswered questions:

  1. Will it work sideways on older iPhones that don’t have a plateau?

  2. Can you charge other iPhones with a USB-C cable?

  3. Can you plop MagSafe compatible AirPods on it to charge them wirelessly?

The product page does say it will charge other smaller accessories via USB-C, so there’s hope it can also charge other iPhones partially. As for wireless charging, technically it should work and charge other iPhones and AirPods since it is MagSafe.
