The latest product of Apple's child labor factories is Iphone 12. This new product will insult you as a consumer because if you purchase this, it doesn't go with a charger and earphones. Those things should be freebies but now Apple want you to buy them separately. Apple wanted to make more money so no more free chargers and earphones for you.

Their excuse, they didn't have time because they made Iphone 12 available in 3 different sizes.

iPhone has always been beyond my budget. My husband has one and that too is a gift from his clients and can be used for only official purpose. My smartphone and that too that fits my pocket is good enough for me and serves my purpose. I do not use my phone much. It is either for talking, video calls or sometimes for clicking pictures. I still prefer laptop for my online work. I don't use too many apps also except for the few very much needed ones. Apple products are always premium ones and have a niche target. I do not belong in that.

I really don't know how they think sell phone without charger. Even old charger is compatibile (in some models), if you sell old phone you will give that charger. So for new phone you need new charger.

Their phones are expensive already and they will do this. They encourage people to buy 3rd party charger so the Phone will have a short lifespan and they will buy more. We know charging with 3rd party chargers ruins phones.

I read that this iPhone doesn't have charger and earphones for environmental reasons as our carbon footprint will be higher. For me it is a ridiculous explanation as they will use materials to have it in different boxes.

That makes them brilliant in gaining more profits. But I think for people who bought the latest iphone won't have a problem in buying new airpods. They would just need to buy a charger if they plan to buy iphone 12.

[Netherrealmer]

I bet they will raise the price of those chargers. Iphones are overrated anyway and I do not want to contribute to child slavery.

Apple really takes the Michael, they take GREED to new levels I love Apple products but this is just ridiculous. They need to be very careful or they'll lose many of their diehard fans.

[mrki444]

Apple will become like car companys one day. They earn more on selling parts than on final product.

[Milllyxy]

That is so not fair but people would still buy it, iPhone is something that some people can't just live without.

[Netherrealmer]

South Korean phones like Oppo are much more better than Iphones anyway. People should give Oppo a try.

[Reboot]

Yeah I totally agree
I wonder why people are not content with iPhone 11
I think the problem with people is that they have a lot to spend and they don't know what to spend it on

So if they bring iPhone 20 people will still buy as if they are expecting a phone that can fly😂

iPhone 12 is good but why don't you work with what you have ?

[Netherrealmer]

How is it good when it barely has difference with 11 and you have to buy a separate charger.

Most folks who buy Apple Products here buy for showing off and as a status symbol.
Yes, Apple products have somewhat higher security to phone hacking etc than Android ones as they are of a closed ecosystem, yet that can be a disadvantage as well.
I have handled an iOS device- it was similar to the normal commercially available Apple phones yet dissimilar in many respects as well.
Apple should be providing charger and earphones along with their high cost phones.
My guess is that since more Apple phones would be produced domestically in India now so Apple phone costs in India might come down.
Yet that would take some more time.

Yeah apple can go screw themselves they use slaves to make these. Why would I pay them
600 dollars to spy on me. I rather use Droid they dont spy just kidding.. but at least
they didn't use slaves to make their phones.

[kataomoi]

There are rumors that Samsung will do the same for their next phone. No charger or earbuds included. Looks like all the big companies will be following suit soon. Sigh..

[mrki444]

but at least
they didn't use slaves to make their phones.

But how much they paid workers in China, it is not much far from slavery. Check some videos about conditions in Foxconn where they work and sleep.

I've never heard of Oppo before but would would be willing to check it out. However, I don't ever remember seeing it here.

[Netherrealmer]

Oppo Phones are expensive too and actual Hollywood stars used them over iSLAVE, oops I mean I phone.

So somebody will drop Iphone and choose Chinese model? Something is weird in Hollywood.
