Apple is removing the USB power adapter from upcoming Apple Watch boxes – The Verge

Eliminating the power adapter indicates new Apple Watch clients wont have access to the device that plugs into the wall, but they must still get Apples custom Apple Watch cable television that recharges the gadget wirelessly.

Apple on Tuesday revealed it would no longer be shipping USB power adapters with Apple Watch devices as part of an effort to decrease its environmental effect. The announcement was made by Lisa Jackson– Apples vice president of environment, policy, and social efforts– throughout the companys “Time Flies” live stream event, in which it revealed the brand-new Apple Watch Series 6 and less expensive Apple Watch SE.

There it is: Apple eliminating USB power adapters from Apple Watch. Next month: iPhone.– Mark Gurman (@markgurman) September 15, 2020

According to Bloombergs Mark Gurman, this move will not be limited to Apple Watch devices; it will also consist of upcoming iPhones. Apple may be preparing an iPhone-specific live stream occasion for later this year, likely in October, where it could announce a similar removal of USB power adapters from packages of its new mobile phones.
