Debate returns: New MacBook Pro (M5) doesn’t include charger in Europe
Apple made a move seen after what happened with the iPhone and iPad; MacBook Pro M5 will no longer include a charger in the EU
This could be something seen on the iPhone since 2020, where a charger is not included in the box, following what happened recently with the newest iPad Pro and iPad Air. The debate will come to the agenda once again Launch of new MacBook Pros that will no longer come with the corresponding charger. Because?
Apple has decided to no longer include the charger in the box of the new MacBook Pro with M5
Purely for environmental reasonsMacBook Pros join the trend of not having a charger in the box in the European Union and the United Kingdom. Especially, They comply with the “Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment” standard in the EU. This will only apply to devices with M5 chips, as other MacBooks with M4 Pro and M4 Max chips are still sold with the 70W and 96W respective power adapters. MacBook Air also includes a 30W and 35W power adapter.
The package will still include a USB-C to MagSafe 3 cable, at least it won’t come empty in this respect.. In the United States, Mexico, and other countries, the MacBook Pro with M5 chip still has a 70W adapter. Although it is a move that will happen sooner or later, it is not expected to be thrown aside globally as in the case of the iPhone.

Apple introduced the new MacBook Pro with M5 chip
A clue to this move may be given by the new iPhone 17 charger
With the launch of the iPhone 17, Apple introduced a new power adapter that is dynamic. Compact size with incredible performance delivering up to 60W of power. Both iPhone, iPad and Mac appear under product compatibility. Although the adapter designed for this device is 70 W, it may be possible to charge it.. It’s only a matter of time before Apple manages to reduce the size of the power adapter for the MacBook Pro. Offer at least a size similar to the current 30 or 35 W Like on MacBook Air.
