Loaders will not be the only component that will be outside the packaging of mobile devices. A A new threat trend with the elimination of USB cable With whom you load your device. A well -known manufacturer has already begun to implement it, and it is likely that other brands, such as Samsung, Apple or Xiaomi, do the same in the near future.
According to the publication Redditnew Sony Xperia 10 VII sells without a charger or USB cableThe field in the photo shows that the packaging is designed to place manuals and other documentation under a mobile phone, but not a cable. Although Sony did not release the official answer, we could have assumed that the reason not to include this component in the box.
The idea is not to include a USB cable It may seem lower for some They have other cables at home. Sony and other manufacturers can argue that without offering it, they will help the environment with smaller electronic waste and smaller boxes that reduce the carbon trace. Nevertheless, the real reason is associated with the economy of the millionaire and the possibility of receiving certified cables for the sale of income (for example, Apple).
The latter is important because Not all USB-C cables are equalThe field of use of non -certified cables can limit the charging rate or data transfer. For example, this general cable that you bought on the street will take up to three hours to download a mobile phone instead of 1 or simply do not activate additional functions in models such as Pixel or Galaxy.
In more extreme cases, the USB-C cable without voltage regulation can overheating a mobile connector in a few minutesThe ability to damage the device or even generate fire. There are also poorly calibrated cables that cause voltage fluctuations that decompose the battery or can damage the motherboard.
Without turning on the USB cable in the box, companies will sell them separately
It is here that a brand is produced to win additional euros. While users are not required to buy a USB cable directly with the brand, some will do this to avoid problems with common models. This One of the practices that Apple explodes bestWho also does not include load cables in their latest AirPods models.
It is difficult to understand whether this measure will be adopted by other brands. Although Sony was one of the great people in the mobile industry ten years ago, its presence was significantly reduced. Xperia no longer has the same weight against the galaxy, Xiaomi or any other Android model, although they still have a base of followers.
If manufacturers decide to remove a USB cable from a mobile box, there is nothing to do. If the regulatory authorities do not intervene and do not force them to observe the measure.
