Still, there are some who see this as a profit generator for Apple. There will always be a number of consumers who will buy the latest 20W power adapter even if they own the 18W brick that came in the box last year with the iPhone 11 Pro models. And the lack of EarPods in the box might be a win-win for the company. That’s because someone who purchases an iPhone 12 series phone might end up buying the EarPods from Apple or might end up shelling out some cash to purchase a pair of AirPods or AirPods Pro.
During yesterday’s event, Apple noted that it has already distributed two billion power adapters worldwide. Last month, Apple stopped including power adapters with the Apple Watch Series 6 and Apple Watch SE. Right now, Apple continues to include power adapters with its iPad tablets.
We expect to see those purchasing a new iPhone online get an option on the screen allowing them to add a charger and a pair of EarPods with their iPhone purchase.
