A few years ago, Apple stopped including charging adapters with smartphones, starting a new trend. It looks like the company has now decided to go even further and remove the charging cable.

As it turns out, the recently announced AirPods 4 don’t come with a USB-C cable, let alone a charger. Apple announced this on its official website in the specifications of the new headphones.

It is not yet known whether this will only apply to the brand’s headphones or whether Apple will start removing cables from iPhone bundles in the future.

By the way, AirPods 4 are already available for pre-order. Sales of the headphones will start on September 20, 2024.
