Apple just announced the new iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro and part of the news was that Apple is no longer including wired EarPods or the USB charger brick in the box to reduce the excesses of packaging and help reduce the environmental impact of iPhones. This change doesn’t only apply to the new iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, but also the rest of the lineup Apple has on sale, including the iPhone SE, iPhone XR and iPhone 11.
This means the box will be much slimmer and Apple will be including an USB-C to Lightning cable with every new iPhone.
