Apple iPhone 12 and other models in the latest lineup of iPhones have been launched and as expected, the new smartphones have managed to create enough buzz for everyone to be talking about them on the Internet.
Interestingly, the buzz is not just about the iPhones, as Apple made it a point that it pushed in catchy highlights in between the launches of subsequent iPhone models. HomePod Mini, a Siri-powered home assistant like Amazon Alexa or Google Home, is one of them. Its plan for “net-zero climate impact” by 2030 is another.
is, however, the latter that caught everyone’s attention and has everyone talking about it, surprisingly, not for the good. That is because, in the name of saving the environment, Apple managed to leave iPhone 12 buyers bereft of one thing – a charger.
Here are some of the reactions of the people on the move – with most of them being made on the no-charger-in-the-box policy. Then, of course, the memes cannot be far behind in such a case.

Imagine selling your kidney to buy the new iPhone 12 and it comes WITHOUT a charger and headphones. #AppleEvent pic.twitter.com/LuoUmAsLtJ

Headphones, whoever thought of that? As for the charger, now that’s a serious heartbreak.

That is because the charger wasn’t in the box. Probably your mother’s that you use?
What do you think of Apple’s decision to completely discontinue including the charging adapter and earphones from all-new iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max boxes?
Do you think it’s going to help save e-waste pile up in the near future, because of all the wasted chargers and earphones thrown away any way?
