Apple and Xiaomi will no longer provide headphones with their smartphones

Following a change in French regulations, manufacturers are no longer obliged to offer a hand-free kit with their smartphones.Xiaomi and Apple are the first to apply this rule in France.

Last year, as part of a law aimed at reducing the digital environmental footprint in France, the deputies deleted Apple, Samsung and others to integrate headphones into smartphone boxes.These are simply obliged to offer compatible headphones in marketing.

Two manufacturers have already implemented this measurement.Xiaomi got into it on January 17 and Apple will apply it on January 24 on new smartphones.The advantage is notably to avoid over -assessment linked to headphones, since these companies no longer market headphones in certain markets.Without counting the savings.
