I think that this is a bit of a nothing burger tbh.
thank to usb-c, I think it is fair to assume that most people have a charger already at home.
Since the EU made them adopt USB C for iPhone?
Nothing that I’ve bought in the last 5-6 years, has come with a charger.
Just a cable.
Previously USB2 to USB-C, but lately USB-C to USB-C.
E: Oh, it’s Apple, who only went to USB-C because the EU forced them to. Everyone else just understood what to do.
late stage capitalism indicator #1000
That will save enough money for another private jet taxi service for the CEOs
Fortunately now people will buy the cheapest charges from Temu to burn down their homes while they hope the charger and the device have matching power delivery mode / standard (without any indication on the charger nor on the device):

Will point this out since I haven’t seen this said yet –
MacBook Neo “requires” a 20W charger for normal operation – so most any USB-C chargers from phones/etc will power it without issue. (It’s a phone SoC after all, so basically a Tablet in terms of power needs).
This falls in line with the goal of the EU policy of creating less eWaste with bundled chargers.
We live in tech dystopia in a lot of ways but this isn’t one of them. Go complain when they make the only way to buy this a subscription instead.
Don’t care, I will not be buying apple again.
finally a mac that looks like its OS looks
is my screen broken or is that a yellow laptop im seeing? that might just be the ugliest device ive ever seen. i supoose if you have one of those banana phones it might work
Good. If I need an additional charger I’ll just buy one.
Honestly I never undstood the outrage about companies not including USB chargers anymore.
I literally threw a bunch of them into the garbage a couple of weeks ago, because I need, what, 3? I had over 10.
And the included ones are trash anyway, I got a multi port 70w charger for a couple of bucks and that handles almost everything.
Boycott this shit
The EU USB-C requirement do have it’s benefits.
My travel backpack earlier had:
Laptop charger + proprietary cable
Phone charger + proprietary cable
tablet charger + proprietary cable
Headset proprietary cable (charges from the laptop)
Now it has one charger (Ikea Sjöhult two port) + 2 Ikea Rundhult cables.
