The trickle of rumors and leaks continues and each and every one of them points towards the same destination: an iPhone 12 without charger in the box. What could be the tray included in the future iPhone 12 box seems to confirm it.
Except for a major surprise, it seems that the next iPhone 12 will arrive in a smaller box and without a USB charger, neither fast nor slow or of any kind. The EarPods headphones with a Lightning connector will also disappear, including until the last model launched last year. Both elements will leave their space so that Apple can reduce the size of the box. Ecological reasons, economic reasons ... at the moment we do not know what the purpose of this decision may be, that if it is confirmed, almost no one will like it.
The image you see in this article is the tray on which the iPhone would rest inside the boxWe see a round space, where the Lightning cable will be stored, which will be induced inside, and a square space where, predictably, the small instructions and the classic apple stickers will be included. On them will be placed the iPhone 12, whose silhouette you can see drawn on the tray, with its rounded corners.
How about Apple not including a USB charger in the box of the next iPhone?

We do not know if it is a reliable source, so we must take this rumor simply for what it is, one more rumor. But as leaks accumulate in this regard it seems more than certain that the charger of the next iPhone we will have to take it out of a drawer where we have an old one stored, or buy it together with the iPhone when placing our order. What do you think of this decision if it ends up being confirmed? Our survey is pretty straightforward: nearly three-quarters of the respondents rate it as "regrettable," and only less than 10% think it is a good idea.
It is quite unfortunate that a mobile of 1000 euros or more comes without accessories such as the charger, for that grace of Apple the other manufacturers will copy the trend, there is already a big problem there. To many, it will simply not come to them to buy it just for that movement, even with money left over, although I know that there will be many others who do not care and will buy it all.
