iPhone 12 survey: without charger and headphones, do you buy?

Survey closed:find the results here.

According to thelatest rumors about the iPhone 12, it could be that the latter is deliveredall alone in his box. Indeed, several analysts and specialists from the Californian firm predict that Applewould no longer provide a charger or even headphones with its next iPhones.

Several reasons could explain this strategy. On the one hand, this would make it possible to make smaller boxes, cheaper to manufacture and transport. On the other hand, particularly for headphones, users would be more inclined to turn to AirPods. And then not including charger and headphones with the iPhone would also mean savings. Unless the selling price of the smartphone is reduced, which, knowing Apple, is not very likely.

Finally, Apple would surely justify this tactic by pressing the point ofecologyand the fact that many users already have a charger and headphones at home. They would therefore not need an additional charger and EarPods for a new iPhone.

In any case, the subject has the gift of unleashing passions among certain readers. It is indeed possible that removing the charger and headphones from the box will not be accepted by buyers.
