I thought this was a bit crazy. To me... you cannot exclude a charger without a design change. Maybe the portless iPhone will be a thing... inductive charging??? I guess that is another topic for another time. But it's a tad crazy to not include one if the phone needs it.
Check out this article:
Apple might not include a charger with the iPhone 12. Good - theverge.com (https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2020/6/30/21307463/apple-iphone-12-power-adapter-charger-rumor-usb-c)
Of anyone can pull this off, Apple could. But I don't think that's best for the consumer ... at all. And inductive charging is cool... but not is not cheap.
Thoughts? Comments? Post it up.
lol... I can confirm this is true, by the way. It does not come with a charger. It has the usb to c cable... but no wall charger. You have to pay additional if you want that.
I get less packaging, people are charging their devices differently these days.... AND the rise of inductive charging has occurred. But if you're not in a car with inductive charging OR have the home setup, this can be quite a bit inconvenient.
nintendo started it... 3ds w/o charger...
LOL
@targetrasp I blame Nintendo as well... but I think someone did it before Nintendo, but I cannot remember who it was right now...
Short memories... now that's google's fault. Who needs to retain knowledge anymore
