Samsung Reportedly Won’t Include Chargers With Some Phones Starting Next Year by VillageBus(m): 3:17pm On Jul 09, 2020 |
Samsung may not include chargers in the boxes of some of its smartphones starting in 2021, according to a report from Korean news site ETNews. The company is taking them out because many people already have chargers and to help reduce costs, the report says. While not including a charger in the box might seem like a big move, Samsung reportedly isn’t the only major phone maker considering it. Apple may do something similar by not including a charger with this year’s iPhone lineup, according to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Apple may also phase out the 5W and 18W chargers that currently come with iPhones (depending on which model you buy) and instead offer a new 20W fast charger that will be sold separately, said Kuo. Removing chargers from phone boxes could be a major way for Samsung and Apple to lower the costs of selling their phones and make their phone packaging smaller, but it could also have a significant impact on the environment. Taking them out of some of the top-selling smartphones could help reduce the number of chargers that go unused and are thrown away because people already have a bunch more scattered around their house. https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2020/7/8/21317304/samsung-smartphone-chargers-2021-cost-environment

Hey, Samsung! You better stop this silly packaging innovation. We never told you we are getting occupied by the number of chargers we get because of buying new phones. Who wants to get a brand new phone and be looking for who has the matching charger for his or her new toy? Be careful oo 20 Likes 2 Shares |

iKingsley: You don't get it.... They want to sell the charger separately and then later will begin to sell the earpods separately too.... I hope they'll also be selling the casing separately.... They're the ones that started the idea of not including additional SDcards with phones..... 5 Likes |

Samsung couldn't wait for a few years to make this madness a trend I won't be surprised if instead of prices of their phones to drop, it'll increase, what with ARM making Cortex - X a reality by next year and Qualcomm monopoly remains unchecked 1 Like |
