Samsung has revealed that its future phones will not ship with charging bricks. The company will also no longer ship headphones in the box, with the belief that gradually removing the accessories from its phones could make them more sustainable.

 

In a Q&A the company implies that, although the next generations of its phones may not ship with the accessories, some may. Apart from the S series, Samsung has other series like the A series, the fold series and the other budget options; and they could retain the charger in some of these series.

Here’s Samsungs full statement on the issue;

“We discovered that more and more Galaxy users are reusing accessories they already have; and making sustainable choices in their daily lives to promote better recycling habits. To support our Galaxy community in this journey, we are transitioning to removal of the charger plug and earphones in our latest line of Galaxy smartphones.

We believe that the gradual removal of charger plugs and earphones from our in-box device packaging can help address sustainable consumption issues; and remove any pressure that consumers may feel towards continually receiving unnecessary charger accessories with new phones.

We’ve also been implementing standardized USB-C type charging ports since 2017; so older chargers can still be compatible with our newest Galaxy models”.

 

Unlike Apple, Samsung is not pulling the charging bricks and accessories from its existing smartphones. Samsung still lists and ships the Note 10 series and Note 20 Ultra with the charger out of the box.
