It started a company Apple recently sent polls to iPhone users in Brazil about how they use the included USB charger.
The move comes before the iPhone 12 lineup was announced later this year, but after an appearance Many rumors about not being included Apple charger with USB port and EarPods in the box for the first time.
Weasel The survey Users what they did with the charger supplied with the USB port of the previous iPhone after replacing it with a new model, so Apple is targeting people who were already users of the iPhone and recently bought a new device.
The iPhone manufacturer explains that the survey refers to a power adapter with a USB port, not to a (Lightning) cable.
The survey says: The charger with a USB port is used for charging with a wall outlet, and you can connect the charger to an iPhone via a separate charging cable.
The survey includes a series of checkboxes with multiple possibilities on how consumers use their iPhone chargers, including:
- I sold or replaced it with my iPhone.
- I lost it.
- I gave it to a family member or friend.
- I still use it at home.
- I still use it abroad, (at work, school, or other places).
- I still keep it, but I don’t use it.
- It no longer works, or does not work well.
- Recycled.
It is noteworthy that this is not the first time that Apple has asked users about their opinion of its products.
The company previously sent a survey on the presence of a headphone port on a MacBook Pro computer, but the laptop still contains the port.
Apple periodically polls like this to get market data, but it usually focuses on products, not accessories.
It is interesting to know that Apple is asking users about the charger directly connected to the iPhone’s USB port, in conjunction with many rumors about removing it from the box.
Although it is still just a rumor at this point, the idea of removing Apple’s power adapter from the next iPhone case has sparked controversy, and Apple may resort to this step to save money, reduce e-waste, and allow more charging efficiency.
Many users have charging adapters from previous iPhone purchases, and some may prefer other charging solutions, such as multi-port chargers or wireless chargers.
