Reply to comment by Aceswift007 in Apple slapped with a $19 million fine in Brazil for not selling iPhones with a charger by mepper

Well. Apple actually supplies a cable with their phones. Those cables plug into standard charging bricks. The newer ones actually come with usbc ends.

I could understand that people are upset when apple wouldnt supply a cable with their phones as thats the unique part.

It talked about chargers not being included. The cables are supplied. And Brazil talking about saving the planet while burning the Amazon, jeesh.

By "unique," I meant more the actual input end of the cord. Pretty much all chargers end with USB-C, but majority of devices had a micro USB for the actual device power input. Apple has a unique one that only works with Apple devices, don't think I've ever seen anything else use their type
