According to rumors, there is a chance that Apple will be removing accessories including headphones and chargers from the box of the not yet released iPhone 12. This may seem radical but that's also what we thought when Apple removed the headphone jack from the iPhone. Let's take a look at what this world would look like if the rumors are true. What would a world look like without accessories in the box?

To explain this let's look at how purchasing an iPhone 12 may be different. Please remember when reading this that this is all speculation. What Apple decides to do in the end is up in the air.
So your going to Apple.com to check out your new iPhone 12.You click the iPhone tab and choose the iPhone 12. Now it's time to customize your phone. Choose the color, storage, and the cell phone carrier. After clicking continue this is where things start to change. Instead of the iPhone going straight to your shopping cart and checking out, you have to choose your accessories.
First, with no charger in the box would you like one on the side? If so Apple may let you choose between one of their options: slow speed charger (5w), medium speed charger (12w), or fast speed charger (18w). Each charger would come with its respective charger cable. You could also get the option for a wireless charger. Since Apple still doesn't have an Apple-branded wireless charger you would be offered a different brand that Apple sells like Belkin. The different charger options give buyers a choice rather than being stuck with what's in the box or having to buy a different one later. This would also give you the option to not include a charger at all. Now, why would you not want a charger in the box? If your upgrading from an iPhone 5 or newer then you already have a charger that will work with your new iPhone. This is also for the people who prefer buying a charger from a 3rd-party like Anker or AmazonBasic.
The next step is the headphones. You can choose from any of Apple's headphones like the basic EarPods,
