      Yes! they should ban phones without stereo jack, then go back using Nokia 3310 and play music on Sony Walkman with state of the art tech to forward and reverse magnetic tapes...

                  How they can keep screaming eco-friendly while dropping the one headphone jack standard everyone uses and simultaneously creating a product that has a very little lifespan?

                  Good talk

The flagship iPhone used to cost 649$, not 999$. Everything keeps going up, especially in markets like smartphones where the hype is really dying down and people are more and more reluctant to spend. So yeah - we see 'creative' cash grabs like this. The headphone jack is another one, does everyone want/need wireless? Nope. But you pretty much HAVE to now. It's an ugly, capitalist world!

                      It's all fancy words in update catalogue..... In reality update does not improve anything..... I feel like this update also is for promotion of (nothing phone 2) I dont feel any improvements

                        sa11oum, 15 Mar 2023I am not taking sides, just trying to have a discussion. It... moreAgain, please remember ye olde days when chargers were already accounted for in the cost for the phone. Were all corporations in losses during that time? Not at all. They were still showing record sales and making huge bank. So there's no need for them to do it now citing reasons like environmentalism or "you already have a charger at home".

                        The right way to do this would've been to include an option of opting out of a charger in the box.

                        I understand I'm arguing from what seems to you from an idealistic standpoint, but trust me in India, everyone besides these two companies offer fast chargers (much much faster than what Samsung and Apple offer) and a case in the box - so it's definitely not idealistic here. And they've managed to do that with environmentalism in mind.

                        But alas you are right. It is what it is and I'm just going to have to accept it as what it is and move on. Apologies if I came on too strong. I mean you no offense. It's just I've had to deal with so many people constantly justifying it that I immediately assume the worst. My bad

                          HopeFilledIdiot, 15 Mar 2023Bruh of course everyone knows why they did that. Do I look ... moreI am not taking sides, just trying to have a discussion. It is indeed a cash grab but to be fair, they could have kept the charger in and raised prices by 20, 30 or even 50$ and made EVERYONE pay the price instead of leaving the choice to the consumer. There's always two sides to everything.

                            sa11oum, 15 Mar 2023Well of course it's not good for the consumer - how co... moreBruh of course everyone knows why they did that. Do I look like the kind of guy who doesn't understand that?

                            My point entirely is regardless of whether we know or don't know why they do that, it's scummy at best and as a consumer, we shouldn't support them or even justify them.

                            Don't take the side of the corporation my guy

                              HopeFilledIdiot, 15 Mar 2023What you've done here is justify why it would happen. ... moreWell of course it's not good for the consumer - how could it possibly be good to have something taken away for basically no reason. I am just explaining why they have done this. From the manufacturer's perspective, the price was going up no matter what. So they decided to give the consumer the choice - if you have a charger, you're fine, otherwise you're spending that 20$. It is what it is.

                                sa11oum, 15 Mar 2023Public companies are always under immense pressure to raise... moreWhat you've done here is justify why it would happen. The end consumer doesn't care. Shouldn't have to care.

                                For a company to squeeze more profits there can be n number of reasons, but as a consumer does it benefit me? Absolutely not. So I won't support that.

                                And you're forgetting something very important, chargers were always bundled with devices. Even cases are. To this day they are bundled. It's only Samsung and Apple doing what you say.

                                Not sure why you limit the smartphone market to just those two options when there are a ton of other options.

                                  HopeFilledIdiot, 15 Mar 2023Idk about America, but nobody in India is increasing prices... morePublic companies are always under immense pressure to raise revenue and show growth, quarter over quarter, year over year. The smartphone business has really stagnated and is, overall, in a decline. People upgrade less frequently and don't seem to care much about buying the best devices anymore. That's why we see 1000$+ smartphones, chargers and earphones taken out of the box, etc. It's an easy way to increase your margin on the device itself and generate further revenue from selling the accessories separately. So yes, coming back to my point, if they want to bundle a charger, we would have seen prices increase even more (talking about Apple and Samsung mostly).

                                    sa11oum, 15 Mar 2023The charger thing is just a reality at this point. We can e... moreIdk about America, but nobody in India is increasing prices for chargers. And first of all, chargers were already a part of the cost before - how would it suddenly become an additional cost that the customer has to bear?

We can either: a) get a charger in the box and companies raise the phone price by 20-30$ or b) buy our own charger if we need one, personally I prefer the second option.
