Apple has margin to spare, more than any other phone company I reckon, no way they'll leave a country as big a brazil over something like this. It shouldn't be a big ask to provide a charger when you sell a phone worth multiples of the minimum wage.

I do feel for the resellers that hold them in stock right now, not sure how these units will be treated.

But Apple skipped including a power brick under a greenwashing initiative which was really to skim more profits? It's a way to rein in Apple's greed from the looks of it.

You're delusional if you think Apple will leave a massive market like that over some petty dispute. It's like people think they operate with razor-thin margins. Do you believe the price difference is only due to tariffs? Subtract them, then compare them again. You're in for a fun surprise. Add that to the fact that it's not only a hardware business but also software, with a good 15%-30% profit over sales through its app distribution scheme.
