On June 29, it was reported that Guo Mingxuan, a well-known Apple industry chain analyst, published a report yesterday, in which he predicted that Apple's new iPhone 12 in the second half of this year would cancel the attached charger, and the released iPhone SE 2 was also expected to start canceling the attached charger in the second half of this year.
Guo Mingxuan said that this is because the material cost of iPhone 12 has significantly increased this year because of its support for 5G. In order to keep the price of iPhone 12 close to that of iPhone 11 and replicate the success of the latter in sales, Apple may choose to cancel the attached charger to reduce costs. Although Guo Mingxuan did not specify the high-end iPhone 12 ProWhether the charging head is no longer included, but the report said that this practice may be extended to all new iPhones in the future.
It is worth mentioning that Guo Mingxuan published a report last month predicting that Apple would cancel the EarPods attached to iPhone 12Wired earphones, if the charger is canceled, Apple will almost only sell bare phones in the future; the practice of not giving earphones is very common among domestic Internet phone brands, which is really helpful to further control costs, but if the charger is really canceled, it is a bit unprecedented. After all, charging is just a need, which may cause inconvenience to some consumers,Guo Mingxuan mentioned in his article that Android mobile phone manufacturers may follow suit in the future.
The cancellation of the attached charging head will also bring a wave of considerable growth to Apple's own and third-party charging accessories business, but whether it will bring substantial growth to wireless charging accessories remains to be seen, Guo Mingxuan said.
Recently, pictures of the suspected new Apple 20W fast charging head have been exposed on the Internet. Guo Mingxuan said in this report that this charging head will be mass produced in the third quarter of this year. Its appearance is similar to the 18W PD charging head attached to the current iPhone 11 Pro. It will be used as an optional accessory of the iPhone in the future. The 10.8 inch iPad to be released in the second half of this year and the 8.5 inch iPad mini to be released in 2021The 20W rechargeable head will be attached to the phone. In addition, Apple's original 5W, 18W and 12W chargers will be discontinued in succession.
