The next iPhone won’t need a charger
Because it won’t have a charging port
People around the globe were glued to their screens to watch the newest Apple event on October 13, 2020, where Cupertino based Apple announced the iPhone 12 to the world. Many people had an idea of what was expected, the team at MacRumors have been working overtime on very correct hints and leaks, so we did expect the 5G compatibility, a mini phone, the squarer edges and no charger in the box.
But why am I stating that the next iPhone will not have a charging port? By Apple removing the adapter in the iPhone 12 paves way for them to remove the charging port entirely in the future. They are big enough to take the leap so that the competition follows. Heck, they’ve done it before, to the headphone jack.
The removal of the headphone jack
On September 7th, 2016, Apple announced to the world they were going to remove the beloved 3.5mm headphone jack from their iPhone line. The world was outraged! An entire subculture of headphones has developed since the inception of the jack in the 1870s. Headphones connected everyone, whether you are rich or poor you owned one. From everyday brands such as TDK to expressive SkullCandy to high-end Bang & Olufsen to the audio specialist brands such as Focal.
