In the last two years, chargers have disappeared from the packaging of most flagship smartphones from many manufacturers. Now the same is happening with tablets as well, as Samsung has stopped shipping the charger with a whole range of tablets Galaxy Table S8.
Advice Galaxy The S21 was Samsung's first smartphone series to come without a charging adapter in the product packaging. The company thus followed the decision of Apple, which for its line of phones iPhone 12 removed the adapter from the package back in October. The American company also caught it appropriately for its move, including from the ranks of the South Korean company. However, it all came back to her like a boomerang later, because she did exactly the same step.

As a justification which Apple, Samsung and other companies to lighten the packaging of their products, is usually that, in addition to trying to be better for the environment (smaller packaging = less CO2, leaner packaging = less e-waste), most people already have a compatible charger at home anyway. Whether from another phone, tablet or even a computer. What about the fact that one adapter is not enough and what about the fact that perhaps it is not so powerful. If the user wants to, he can purchase a new adapter at any time. And what about the fact that this increases his purchasing costs and his step will not help the environment or the reduction of waste accumulation.

Yes with the Pen, but not really with the adapter
When you look at the Czech website of Samsung and click here for new tablets Galaxy Tab S8, you can see what's included in their packaging. Of course, apart from the tablet itself, you will also find a data cable, a needle for the SIM/SD card tray, even an S Pen, but the charging adapter is nowhere to be found. The company thus follows the trend he set Apple and she followed him. So not only with phones, but with new tablets, you will no longer receive an adapter. The entire series supports 45W charging, when you should reach 100% battery capacity in 80 minutes.
It is paradoxical that i Apple, which started the trend of lightening the packaging, still supplies the adapter for its iPad tablets. Whether it's the cheapest model or the most expensive iPad Pro. So his move only concerned phones iPhone, when the adapter is no longer included even with the iPhone 13 series. But what is not, it can be, and it is certainly not to be hoped that the adapters in the packaging of iPads should be with us for a long time. Samsung was just a bit faster in this step.
Newly introduced Samsung products will be available for purchase, for example, on Alza
Do you remember when Apple's Jamtung was muted for the same move in phones? 🙂
Yes, at first he mocked and then deleted those posts when he realized that he would actually save money on it too.
yes, samsung is one of the most hypocritical companies.
So stop giving the tablet, because most of them already have it from the older package and that's it
