I am generally an "anti-apple", the recent release of iPhone 12 just make me thinking that I am right.
iPhone's CPU is the best regarding single core benchmark... but everything else is mediocre.
All the Apple's ecosystem is so close that you just own the bare hardware, you have 0 control about the software INSIDE your hardware. It is like Apple's product are like a service.
Moreover the latest iPhone comes without the wall charger LOL, if you didn't buy the iPhone 11 you will not likely have a wall charger that has a type-c input, a SIMPLE CABLE WITH TYPE-A was so hard to include it, but don't worry!
You don't have the wall charger with type-c? You can buy it from Apple for 25€
You own a wall charger with type-a but you don't have a type-a-lighting cable? You can buy it from Apple for 25€!
You have a non-Apple wall charger with type-c and your new iPhone 12 comes with the right cable? Be careful, Apple will not replace your battery on warranty if you used a un-certified charger. BUT don't worry, you can buy a certified one from Apple for 25€
So, I think Apple fan-base is so brain-washed nowadays and it hurts the economy. All the reviewers just say:" Apple did it because everybody has at least 1 charger already and by removing it from the package you will save money on shipping (related to the weight and sizes of the package). Moreover it will not hurt the planet ecosystem!".
Just bullsh1t:
1) RARELY a smartphone comes with a type-c charger (OnePlus 8, Samsung S9/10/20, LG, Huawei, iPhone =<10 all use a type-A charger), You can have already a type-c charger only if you own a macbook!
2) It saves money only to Apple because the end-customer will have to pay 25€ to get the charger or cable!
3) Planet ecosystem? Apple produces its smartphone in CHINA where there are not very strict laws regarding ecological pollution, so it is just a market lie.
