Realistically do you really need a new pair of headphones and power adapters in every box? Once I got my airpods, I've never turned back to the old headphones and never would. For the power cord, I got the USB-C cord with the 15 and have plenty of power bricks laying around from prior purchases. Apple saves money by not providing these things, but at some point it would be excessive and useless for me anyway.
I think the annoying part was when they changed the cord to usb c to lightning, while also trying to say well everyone already has the boxes! Everyone had usb a boxes, so plenty of people still had to buy usb c boxes
Power adapters, yeah. I still don’t have many usb c power bricks so I would like to get some more with my devices
I haven’t used wired headphones with my phone since the iPhone 3GS. So many of the accessories stay in the box
Yea, my first iphone was the X and even that I didn't use what was in the box. I had to buy that stuff offhand, but the next phone (13 Pro) I already had the lightning cord and airpods.
Yep. I have about a dozen old Apple wall chargers and those awful wired headphones.
Also, if you’re looking for a gift for someone you hate, a brand new pair of those headphones will do it. They’ll know you spent good money to intentionally get them a truly awful experience.
