I stumbled across this today. Everyone is talking about how the phones dont come with a wall outlet. Which I mean I can kind of understand apple trying to offset 5g and make money while reducing emission. I dont like it but whatever I'll buy the charger separately with the phone.

But What I cant understand or forgive is the new wireless charger doesnt come with one. Even as an apple fan this seems really cheap. They are literally selling you half a charger when you buy a charger. And because its an integrated usb type c cable you cant connect a type A to lighting cable to the charger to get by. You have to buy the new brick.

so be advised if you plan to grab the MagSafe wireless charger like me, you will need to grab the brick as well.


I am a little salty tbh

If I get the adapter, no point of getting the mag safe which charges slower at 15w compare to 20w wire.
that was my thoughts exactly. I was thinking to myself that I would grab magsafe instead of a brick. now I'm wavering back and forth. I mean I already have Qi wireless chargers. Might as well just use them.
