Apple surveys generally cover numerous aspects of its products, but Brazilian Twitter user @Gunstaxl recently pointed out (via 9to5Mac) that the ‌iPhone‌ survey you received included several questions about how you use the charger, including one that specifically addresses the destination of the charger that was included with your previous ‌iPhone‌, an iPhone XR.

We found another recent mention of this survey, conducted by the Brazilian Twitter user @bedabb_, so it seems that Apple’s survey may be limited to that country. In this second case, Apple asked about the charger that came with the user’s previous ‌iPhone‌ 7 Plus.

Among the possible answers to Apple’s question about the destination of the previous charger:

  • Gave it to a family member or friend
  • Recycling
  • Lost or lost
  • It no longer works or does not work well
  • I keep using it at home
  • I still use it outside my home (for example, work, school or other place)
  • I still have it, but don’t use it
  • Sold it or exchanged it with the PiPhone‌

Although it’s still just a buzz at this point, the idea of ​​Apple removing the adaptadoriPhone‌ box adapter has certainly sparked controversy, though removing the adapter will save Apple money, reduce electronic waste, and allow for more shipping efficiency. . Many users already have numerous older comprasiPhone‌ and iPad shopping adapters, while some prefer other charging solutions, such as multiport chargers or wireless chargers.

Apple appears to be preparing its own 20-watt fast charge adapter that would be sold as a separate accessory, an update on the 18-watt adapter that is currently delivered in the box with the iPhone 11 Pro and iPad Pro and is also available in de independently.
