“An iPhone is an iPhone,” says a popular saying in the tech world. But if you are buying an Apple iPhone 12 series phone, please note that you will get single An iphone. Apple’s latest iPhone 12 series does not come with an in-box power adapter or EarPods, a fact that has made the company subject to many social media checks.
Recently, Apple’s biggest rival, Samsung, mocked the company for not including a charger in its latest iPhones. Now, Xiaomi has joined the bandwagon with a video that has gone viral on Twitter.
The Chinese smartphone maker shared a video showing a person unpacking their Mi 10T Pro smartphone to reveal a power adapter inside. “Don’t worry we didn’t leave anything out of the box with the # Mi10TPro,” Xiaomi wrote while sharing the video.

Since it was posted last week, the clip has garnered over a million views and 34,000 ‘likes’.
“Other companies are already making jokes about the iPhone, I LOVE IT !!!” wrote a Twitter user.
“10/10 for marketing,” said another.
Many, however, were quick to defend Apple.
“If we support their customers like Apple, I will buy the charger myself.
The software support should be the top priority, not the plastic part, “commented one commenter.
“It’s going to be a year where all the Android phone makers brag that they didn’t stop packing chargers … and then they’ll stop packing them as well. Same thing they did with the headphone jacks,” said another.
Previously, Samsung had shared a similar post casting a serious shadow in Apple’s way for not including a charger with its latest iPhone 12 lineup.
