RCS?

The provided cable is extra. The talking point of "everyone already has an iphone charger" is referring to the cable you already have (along with the charging brick)
The new cable provided is useful if you have any mac released within the last 5 years you can charge your phone with your laptop, or with the charging brick that comes with the laptop. You can still use your old iPhone cable and charger

I get why people aren't happy about it cause I mean it's just less included s*** but personally it's not really an issue at all

Basically it was supposed to be the next generation of SMS/MMS texting, therefore it would work universally, regardless of if you had an iphone or Android. But the rollout and carriers and development all dropped the ball

Most people hold on to their iPhones the longest out of any phone line.

So majority of the people with an iPhone didn't get an 11...so they all have to buy all new chargers. Myself included.

Nobody but y'all really got money like that to be dropping 700+ on macs, phones, etc

Once again, this is making anyone with anything before an 11 have to get all new chargers.

The “A” in apple actually means scAm.

But you can use any iPhone charger since the 5 with the 12? Sure it might be slower but as long as you have a cable that ends in lightning and a brick to match it then you should be fine

So when is the 12 Pro expected to begin shipping?

Bro it’s not. Anyone with an iPhone 5 or newer who upgrades can use their old lightning cable and brick. How do you charge your phone right now? Use the same thing for the new one the port is the same

I think we mixing messages up here.

But quick question. If everyone already has a charger...why include the charging cable then?

And why not give folks the choice to get a charger or not when buying?

I think they include the charging cable because it takes up relatively little space. Also just as extra. They know it doesn’t work with the charging brick you already have but it’s not supposed to I guess. It works with their macs, there would be no point to include a usb-a cable considering you already have one. That’s just my theory

Ordered my 12 Pro ready for that nostalgic shape. My 20W block and MagSafe charger already came in

Gonna go with the pro, better camera, brighter screen & more ram.

NIGGA WHAT

Apple really is the most greedy f***ing company in the world.

Y’all should just keep getting refurbished iPhones. Apple should have to earn your money

Ya’ll really care that much about a charging brick huh? Imma just plug my new phone in right where I’ve been charging my current one.

Ordered the black iPhone 12. Choosing a color was so devastating. What’d ya’ll go with?

If they put Touch ID on the 12S imma be mad

the ipad got touchid on the power button now, wouldnt be surprised if they put that back in one of the iphones next year (or the year after) tbh

i feel like masks will become a normal thing in society, so touchid needs to coem back

Decided on the 12. I think the mini is too small for my big hands.

Yeah that s*** pisses me off

Should I cop Airpods Pro or wait till the next update?

I say get the pro, ion think there gonna be another update until 2022

Might wait for Gen 2 Pros. The batteries on the Pros are ass

Apple's gimmick of trying to refined old tech as new is getting old as s*** man

These niggas been scamming you niggas good for years
