Reliable Apple Leaker @ has said that Apple will remove the charger and EarPods from the iPhone SE 2nd Generation box.
Other the last few weeks, multiple leakers have said that Apple will be omitting the charger from the upcoming iPhone models (iPhone 12, 12 Max, 12 Pro, and 12 Pro Max) box to reduce waste and to reduce the cost of the phone.
Today, said that he believes that Apple will not only remove the charger and EarPods from the iPhone 12 models, but also the 2nd Generation iPhone SE that released in April of this year. This would mean that the only thing that would come with the $399 iPhone SE would be the iPhone SE and the documentation.
says the reason for this is to make the box thinner and “exquisite”. By removing the charger and EarPods, Apple can get rid of the entire bottom sector to the iPhone box, which will probably make it looks like the Apple Refurbished boxes, as seen below:
It is unlikely that this change will occur until Apple announces the new iPhone models in September. Until then, take this leak with a grain of salt. Nothing is confirmed until Apple officially announce it themselves.
