Apple Ditches Earbuds and Chargers with iPhone 12

Iphone 12 packing

Much to the dismay of iPhone lovers, Apple has just confirmed that its new iPhone 12 lineup will ship without chargers and earbuds. Citing “environmental impact,” Apple has said that the iPhone 12 devices will only come with just a USB-C to Lightning cable.

According to Apple, there are over 700 million Lightning headphones and 2 billion Apple power adapters out in the world already which shows that majority of iPhone 12 buyers will already have both accessories available.

The company believes its decision to remove the earbuds and chargers from its latest iPhones and Apple Watch devices will help it consume less raw materials while also allowing for smaller retail boxes.
