Yesterday was the day for us to get acquainted with the new Xiaomi 12 series devices. The Chinese technology company presented three smartphones with impressive features and today is the day for us to find out what is the contents of their boxes.
Xiaomi’s own statements revealed that its new top of the range no longer have the “environmental protection version”. This means that cables and wall adapters will be included in the new Xiaomi 12.
Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro come with cable and charger in the box
Last year, Xiaomi chose to follow the strategy of Apple and other brands and take the wall adapter out of the box of its high-end. Still, the Chinese were selling another version of the same smartphone with this accessory included.
With the launch of Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro, the brand abolished the simplified version of accessories. In fact, whoever purchases one of these devices will receive a conventional USB-C cable, the wall adapter and even a transparent silicone sleeve.
On the contrary, the Xiaomi 12X will continue to be marketed with the “environmental protection version”. This means that there will be two versions of the same equipment, one with these accessories and the other without them.
The most interesting thing about Xiaomi’s strategy is that the version with all the accessories will not be more expensive than the version without a charger. In this way, the Chinese will not penalize those who prefer to receive their new smartphone with all the accessories.
I remember the trend of removing chargers from the smartphone case started with Apple. The American giant set the tone for the launch of the iPhone 12, invoking environmental concerns.
Despite the fact that several competitors scoffed at this strategy, they did not take long to do the same. This means that it is currently good news to know that a certain smartphone will come with its charger included in the box.
