The new iPhone 12 just announced will not contain a charger or headphones. Yes, at today's Event, the company from Cupertino confirmed that the iPhone 12 will not contain a charger, but only one cable.
Why; But of course for the good of humanity!
Apple removes chargers from its phones to reduce the ecological footprint created by e-waste accessories.
The company said it would reduce up to 2 millions metric tons of carbon emissions each year, which is equivalent to 450.000 cars. Fantastic for the environment but I don't think it's the only reason. Because if it were, the one accessory from the box of each device would have to be reflected in the price.
So good for the environment? or a bigger profit margin for Apple? I will not answer the question, but I will go a little further.
Apple is the first major company to remove the charger and headphones. What do you say others will follow?
