iPhone Sale Ban In Brazil: Apple all Set to Challenge Brazil’s move of banning iPhones without charger

iPhone Sale Ban In Brazil: According to reports, Apple declared it would appeal the Brazilian court’s decision to ban the sale of iPhone models without a battery charger there. The Brazilian Ministry of Justice and Public Security previously penalised Apple BRL 12.275 million (about Rs. 18 crore) for the problem, alleging that the business was selling consumers a defective good. All iPhone 12 and 13 models are not allowed to be sold in the nation under the injunction. With the release of the iPhone 12 in 2020, the Cupertino company discontinued including chargers with its mobile phones, citing environmental concerns.

Apple’s statement regarding the matter

According to the report, Apple stated that it is “sure that our customers are aware of the numerous alternatives for charging and connecting their devices” and that it had “previously won multiple court judgements in Brazil on this topic.”

According to a Reuters story, Apple plans to challenge Brazil’s decision to prohibit the sale of iPhone units without battery charges. The business promised to keep collaborating with Senacon, Brazil’s consumer protection regulator, to “resolve their problems.”

Earlier on Tuesday, the Brazilian government banned the sale of iPhone 12 and newer models that don’t come with a charger. Apple was hit with a BRL 12.275 million fine and accused of engaging in “deliberate activities against customers.”

When chargers were discontinued along with iPhones

With the release of the iPhone 12 in 2020, Apple ended the practise of bundling chargers, stating it as an effort to reduce carbon emissions. There is no proof that selling iPhones without a charger offers environmental protections, the authorities said in rejecting Apple’s case.

An announcement of the new iPhone 14 series, including the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max models, is anticipated at Apple’s Far Out event today, which is when Brazil’s ban was announced.
