At the launch conference of iPhone 12, Apple announced that all iPhones will no longer distribute chargers, the size of the outer packaging box will be halved, and the transportation and storage costs will be halved, saving the cost of chargers and winning a good reputation. This operation is estimated that only Apple can play like this. Regardless of the high-end and low-end versions of iPhone, all cables are unified as USB-C to Lightning, which must be used with PD charger.
For users who have upgraded their old models, if there is only one USB-A charger at home, the mobile phone will not be charged, and users can consciously pay for the charger themselves without sending it. This operation is really only apple. Dare to play like this.
