Xiaomi promised Reduce the amount of plastic used in packaging by 60%. The first step in this direction will be sales of the Mi 10T Lite smartphones in Europe.

It is noteworthy that the changes will only affect the box, so the user will receive absolutely all the same accessories, including a charger, USB-C cable and even a case. Obviously, this is a prick to Apple, line of smartphones iPhone 12 complete charging, allegedly in order to preserve the environment:
Experts: the new iPhone kit would rather save Apple money than improve the environment
A number of environmental benefits claimed by Apple could be offset by people having to buy missing accessories separately.

But if you go deeper into history, many manufacturers joked about various Apple solutions in one way or another, until they themselves began to use them. For example, the batteries built into the smartphone, the rejection of the 3.5 mm headphone jack, or the so-called bangs on the screen.
However, in this case, it will be difficult for manufacturers of Android smartphones to abandon the charger in the kit, since there are too many completely different fast charging technologies, and it is much more difficult to find a charger for a particular smartphone on sale than for an Apple device.
