My second Halo arrived today. While setting it up, it occurred to me that B&O did not include a wall socket adapter. I know there are may reasons for not including it, such as country universality. Still, for $900....

We literally had a hole argument about this last sunday on the podcast and I agree with you! 😂 and 😢

This is not about the money/the price - it’s about e-waste.

But, they could have included a voucher for a free charger in order to let the costumer make the decision.

Right. You could use one of your extras Apple (and every other class brand) gives EVERY time you buy a product from them. They force the customer to make the decision whether or not they need the charger they paid for.

Rumor is the new iPhone will not include a wall charger or ear phones.  Samsung did not supply ear phones with their recent Note 20/Note 20 Ultra (although you could request them through support).  

The companies say it's about e-waste, but I think it's also about $$$.  If it wasn't about $$$, they'd make it easy to get one "on request" (like Samsung did with their headphones... although I don't know how long that deal will last)

 

Finally have tracking info on my Halo. The more I read about it, the more eager I am to get it.
I still don’t have chargers left over, i also don’t buy phones every year so maybe that’s why 😂 so i’d still like it to be included too or atleast have the option of getting one

Excellent! Which color did you get?

Silver, or I guess the correct term is natural. Table version with charger.
