Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun, in a post on Weibo, officially announced that the Mi 11 will not have a charger. What’s even more interesting is that Xiaomi has given the same reason as Apple for not including a charger – it’s good for the environment. In a post on Weibo, the CEO of Xiaomi wrote: “Mi 11, pack lightly. In response to the call of technology and environmental protection, the included charger is canceled out of the box. “Jun further said in his post:” I look forward to your support. Is there a better solution among the industry practice and the protection of the environment? ”
The Mi 11 will be launched in January 2021 and it is unclear if the no-charger policy will reach India or will be limited solely to Xiaomi’s territory.
Don’t worry, we didn’t leave anything out of the box with the # Mi10TPro. https://t.co/ToqIjfVEQX

This is not the first time that Xiaomi has been ‘inspired’ by Apple many times in the past and has done what Apple did first. Nor is it the first time that Xiaomi has launched to investigate Apple. As mentioned above, it was Samsung who first mocked Apple for not giving out a charger. If rumors are to be believed, Samsung will also not ship a charger with its upcoming flagship Galaxy S series. The Samsung Galaxy S21 series is expected to launch in January and there are strong rumors that smartphones will not come with a charger.
