Apple canceled the iPhone's charging head and headphones in the name of environmental protection. At the time, officials said it was not to save money but to protect the environment, and they also gave data. Apple can reduce carbon emissions by 2 million tons per year, but in reality, Apple has not only received praise, but this initiative has also saved Apple a lot of money.
The latest news shows that since Apple decided to cancel the iPhone's charging head and headphones, Cook's move has saved Apple $6.5 billion. It should be noted that the money saved is not reflected in the charger and headphones alone, but also involves packaging and transportation costs and so on. Because there is no charger and headphones Apple's iPhone box is less, shipping costs are lower and so on. So analysts budget each iPhone to save Apple at least $35 during the day, and since the day Apple made its decision, the iPhone without a charger has sold 190 million units worldwide. So that's why the $6.5 billion in reporting was saved.
At the same time, the media also pointed out that Apple's cancellation of the charger did not return the saved cost to the messager, because the iPhone itself did not reduce the price, which is equivalent to Apple making more. What is more interesting is that Apple canceled the charger in the name of environmental protection, but the official is selling the original charger, and the price of an original charger Apple is $19. So Apple is making consumer money for the second time, after all, consumers don't need to spend money to buy chargers alone.
Apple is Apple, of course, and every decision it makes generally leaves no room for bargaining. Consumers can only passively accept, it can be seen that Apple's decision has not affected the sales of the iPhone.
What is even more infuriating is that after Apple made this decision, there were brands in the Android camp that began to follow. Samsung is one of them, and now Samsung not only does not randomly equip the charger in the flagship machine, it is said that the mid-range series also has to cut off the charger. As for the domestic brands last year, there were several follow-ups, and this year it seems that they have all given up. After all, fast charging is also one of the selling points of domestic brands!
