A JUDGE in Brazil recently ruled for Apple to compensate a customer $1 000 (about R15 500) for selling an iPhone without a charger.
A judge has ruled in favour of a Brazilian customer who recently made a purchase of an iPhone device without a charger.
Last year, a Brazil court fined Apple a whopping $2 million for not complying with the country’s consumer laws and disrespecting Brazilian customers.
Apple was fined the equivalent of $1,081 in Brazil for selling a consumer an iPhone without including the power adapter in the box.
Apple says the decision to remove the charger from the iPhone 12 saves it 2 million metric tons of carbon emissions annually, around 10% of Apple's annual footprint.
