After Apple canceled the bonus charger on the iPhone 12 series before, Samsung, Xiaomi, Meizu and other Android camp manufacturers followed suit. Now, Huawei may also follow this “trend.”
Recently, Huawei Mate 40 Pro passed the 3C certification again. The product specifications mentioned: when the product is a glass case (rear cover), the switching power adapter is an optional component; when the product is a PU leather case (rear cover), The switching power adapter is a standard part.
In short, Huawei canceled the chargers for the three glass versions of Bright Black, Glazed White, and Mithril, and only equipped the standard chargers for the two plain leather colors of Populus euphratica in summer and Populus euphratica in autumn.
However, Huawei officials have not yet released relevant information, and the specific implementation plan is not yet clear. The editor predicts that Huawei will most likely not learn from Xiaomi and Meizu’s “environmental protection solutions”, and will leave the choice of chargers in the hands of consumers. Huawei may choose to directly reduce prices for related models.
At present, Huawei does not sell 66W chargers separately, but the official 65W charging price is 199 yuan. It is speculated that the Mate 40 Pro without charger version may reduce the price by about 200 yuan.
It is worth mentioning that Huawei may not cancel the charger entirely for the purpose of “protecting the environment”, but because of the lack of spare parts.
According to the digital blogger @数码闲聊站, due to various reasons, IC chips suitable for chargers are out of stock on a large scale, so not only Huawei, but also other mobile phone manufacturers to release new phones may no longer be equipped with standard chargers. .
In addition, Huawei’s own supply chain has long been cut off, and the supply of many core components has been greatly restricted. Therefore, canceling the charger this time is more of a helpless move.
At present, some versions of Huawei Mate 40 Pro have basically realized the spot, and the shortage of goods has been greatly eased, but the main reason is that the market enthusiasm has gradually calmed down, and the output of Mate 40 Pro itself is still very limited.
