So people who buy phones don't use them?
And who said that Android phones have bad software support? It is just that iphones are so expensive that people can't afford a new phone.

A foreign entity doing what the U.S. government should have to begin with, making valid points indeed. These companies are nothing more than opportunists looking to rip off customers using environmentalism as an excuse.

I just returned my iPhone 11 as it came with no charger. I do have my old iPhone but the charger and cable are broken after 2 years. I will not buy a new phone until they include charger and headphone cable.

Apple has the worst charger I had. In my gadget box of cables, only apple charger is messed up and would not really last more than 3 months of use. Its the cheap non-durable rubber they use on cables. Or, the rubber of the cable becomes sticky because it melts with heat after some time. Apple, the best company making high end premium phone but also makes the worst charging cable that don't last. At least the phone last if you don't break them. Now, selling them separately is the best cheat ever.

Just moved to Android from Apple after many years and couldn't be happier.
So they removed the charger assuming when i sell my old i-phone the buyer isn't going to need a charger ? How wrong were they when i sold my XR they wanted with the charger as they weren't willing to purchase one. So i if i was to buy a new i phone i'd have to fork out an extra £30 for a charger No thanks , every Android at the moment comes with a charger so , Goodbye Apple you have lost 6 customers in my family and we couldn't be happier.

Q, 03 Dec 2020electrical waste?
LOL...
ALL gadget u bought up till this... moreBuying android phones contribute to e-waste too.
Majority of android users have no interest in reparing their old phone cause it's not worth the effort.

Mark... moreIf I upgrade from my Android phone to another Android phone , You think that's coz the software support is terrible???LOL
First of all the software support is ahead of its time as you iOS users are given leftover features from years back.
Secondly, we get new stuff every year(in hw and sw both)
That is a distant dream for iOS Beggars who'll never be choosers.

Marketshare means nothing because it's just the amount of sales.
The reason android has higher marketshare is because people android users are upgrading more than iPhone users, because their phones have terrible software support.

Finally someone think this,
This should be standard in any country, Apple if they want more money from you next time put the wireless charger in the box!
Apple does not care about environment, if they try to they make their products lost more, but this is just a cover for them to make more money, I'm sad people buy their products and other companies like Samsung get inspired by them!

Android--Master, 05 Dec 20203+ Billion Android phones out there, not 2.2 billion.
Don... more2.5B active android devices in 2019.
https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/05/07/there-are-now-more-than-2-5-billion-active-android-devices/
Which means roughly 1.8B android phones.
900M iPhones in 2019.
The number of android phones isn't going to double in a year, so we can assume 2B android phones and 1B iPhones in 2020.
