Many companies like Apple, Xiaomi, and Samsung have already announced that they will not give you a charger when you buy a new smartphone. And the only answer that all these companies give is environmental protection.
But does this make one wonder if not charging protects the environment? On the surface, it looks like yes.
Because only supplying the phone without a charger reduces the size of the box. Which is reducing pollution from plastic elements.
Based on this argument of Samsung, you can see the box of Samsung's new Galaxy S Twenty One Ultra and S Twenty Ultra. In which the box of S Twenty One is much smaller than that of S Twenty.
Looking at the half-size box of S Twenty One, the thinking of these companies is very good. But along with the companies' decision, it has also indirectly had another effect.
First of all, if the new phone does not have a charger, you will try to use the old charger. Which will be very slow and low power.
Second, by the time you use an old charger, both the charger and its cable are weak. Who can't afford the extra time for a new phone?
Do these companies want users to be able to rely on older chargers so that more unnecessary garbage does not pollute the environment? Hardly anyone has stored a three-year-old phone charger.
Nor can he charge the powerful battery of your advanced flagship model. In this case, you must buy a new charger with a packet.
Which, of course, made the video an overnight sensation. On top of that, you know how much plastic and paper there is in a separate charger box.
But with the decision not to charge the phones, you are now unknowingly losing earphones. Samsung's new smartphone S20 Ultra does not have a headphone jack.
There are also very few people who use USB earphones. Now the market for wireless earphones is growing rapidly.
You can buy Galaxy Buds Pro for Samsung S Twenty One Ultra. But the price of these earphones is very high.
So people go to eCommerce sites and try to buy the cheapest USBBC earphones. New earphones are available, but they are not as standard as the earphone devices that come with the smartphone package.
You have to compromise on the quality of the sound. It does not have the same AKG sound option as before. Also, its packet is big.
Which affects the environment more than the previous generation phones. Garbage has now tripled in this way.
This is just the beginning. In the next few years, many other companies will stop offering free phone cases.
If they do, the market will become four different packets and delivery trips, including smartphones, chargers, earphones, and phone cases. Think for yourself how beneficial it is.
Sustainable development is a good thing and we must take care of our earth and the problem of climate change. But are you sure about the steps taken by these smartphone manufacturers?
In fact, looking at all the above results, this is by no means the right move for the earth. The second thing is the contradiction seen in it.
Let's look at Samsung. The day after Apple announced that it would not provide inbuilt chargers, Samsung posted on social media that it would provide chargers to provoke users to suffer from Apple's move.
In which it was said that you get a charger when you buy a Galaxy. Xiaomi immediately did the same. He promised to give a charger to his new MI Ten T Pro.
In fact, when Apple announced the launch of the iPhone 12 series without a charger, companies like Samsung and Xiaomi were ready to make up for its failure.
But even without a charger, the iPhone 12 sold well. Then these companies also thought why not shift to this chargerless strategy.
Samsung even deleted its post, as if nothing had ever happened. If what they were doing was right, they wouldn't have forgotten their promise on another new phone and copied Apple's strategy.
We are not ignorant of the fact that Apple has always made a name for itself by abandoning what seems to be unnecessary and including only what is needed. Apple never puts a charger in its phone and it is clear that it is out of the competition.
Although the removal of the charger is controversial in itself, Apple considers it right. But Apple also has its own problems. He claims that the charger has been removed to reduce the impact on the environment.
But some of his activities are contrary to his claims. Because the old charger you only get on the iPhone 12 doesn't match the brick.
So if you want to use the new Twelve Series cable, you have to buy a new Brick.
Apple says the new iPhone can be charged wirelessly via MagSafe via Snapon Attachments. It seems that the time has come to charge the iPhone after Thirteen. Because by then Apple's phone may not have a physical port to charge.
But both MagSafe and Wireless Charging are eco-friendly concepts. Because when you use MagSafe, not only do you buy it in separate packaging but also at the right and sufficient speed your phone needs.
Another thing is that wireless charging is not effective in itself. Because power passes through your device in many layers, not directly from a single wire, as in a traditional charger. An electromagnetic field must be created between your phone and the charger.
When energy is spread in this way, a lot of energy is lost as heat. Eric of Debugger.com says that charging the phone with wireless technology consumes 47 percent more energy than before.
Some wireless chargers are found to be shipping only power without charging the device. Only 24 hours of energy is wasted without any charge.
Speaking of Magsaf, it is also like a wireless charger. It has a magnet. But it's not as good as a wired charger.
Companies want to be green dear. That's a good thing. But remember, they want to be green at the time and only when they see the benefits.
This is how the business works. It's nice to hear that companies have reduced the size of the box so much and reduced the carbon footprint so much.
But they have only reduced their carbon footprint. But the burden of their carbon footprint falls on consumers.
The best eco-friendly step for companies is to make the charger better instead of abandoning it. Good materials should be used for this.
We are already seeing chargers made of gallium nitrate. As it is very effective, it can give a lot of output using less material.
Also, it sticks to any charging brick, big or small. Gallium nitrate consumes very little energy. These chargers are 25 percent more energy-efficient than ordinary silicon chargers.
This means that these chargers are 70 percent more effective than the wireless chargers currently being introduced by companies. Gallium chargers have lower heat and longer shelf life.
Meanwhile, there is good news. Although Xiaomi has announced that it will remove the charger for China phones, it has announced that it will bring the charger to the international version of MI XI.
That is also a 55-watt gallium nitride charger. Although this is Xiaomi's last charger brick, now people can use a quality brick.
