It's going to be announced today. Rumors have it not releasing until the 22nd of September (probably accurate). If it works or not nobody will really know until we have specs on their wireless charging standard. There will be plenty of articles out on what are the "best" Qi chargers to get.

According to this article, it should work if it's the traditional Qi charger standard. Looks like Apple's first party offering is delayed.

Samsungs fast Qi chargers are usually the best in terms of speed. IIRC they could charge 20 minutes faster than regular Qi chargers from empty to full, however, that was still 45 minutes slower than a plugged in charge.
