Apple will reportedly not include a power adapter in the iPhone 12 box. The EarPods are also rumored to no longer be included, to keep production costs low.
Purchases of the upcoming iPhone 12 will apparently not come with the power adapter, following earlier reports that Apple will not include earphones in the smartphone’s package.
Instead of including the charger in the iPhone 12’s box, Apple will be releasing a new 20W power adapter as a separate accessory, MacRumors reported, citing a research note by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.
The 20W power adapter will reportedly feature fast charging through USB-C Power Delivery and will look similar to the current 18W power adapter, the production of which, along with the 5W power adapter, will end within the year, according to Kuo.
