It may be Apple's most controversial move on the new iPhone 12 series this year not to include charging heads. Although Apple's official statement is that there are more than 2 billion official charging heads in the world for the sake of environmental protection, not all market regulators in all regions acquiesce in this practice.

Recently, according to foreign media reports, Procon SP, a consumer protection agency in Sao Paulo, Brazil, has decided to require that the iPhone 12 series sold locally must be equipped with a charging head, because the power adapter is an essential accessory for using mobile phones, and Apple does not have enough evidence to show that canceling the complimentary charging head can reduce carbon emissions, There is no guarantee to provide the same technical support to consumers who purchase third-party charging heads.

It is reported that Apple must respond to this decision before December 3, or it may face a fine. It is reported that this decision may also be extended to Brazil.

This is not the first conflict between the iPhone 12 and the market regulations in terms of packaging accessories after its release. The iPhone 12 series released in France previously included an EarPods headset more than other regions. This is because there are relevant regulations in France that require mobile phones on sale to have accessories that can limit the impact of radio radiation in the communication process.

Of course, if more mobile phone manufacturers follow this practice and cause disputes in the future, it is not ruled out that regulators in more regions will intervene.
