We were interested to know if Android salad Readers got a charger in the box with their current phones. So we published a poll last week, and here’s how it happened.

Did your current phone come with a charger?

Results

Just over 1,400 votes have been counted in this poll as of the time of writing, and it turns out to be a tight race. However, a small majority of respondents (54.21%) said their current phones have a charger inside the box.

Notable phones mentioned by readers in this regard include the OnePlus 10 Pro series, OnePlus 8T, Oppo Find X5, Samsung Galaxy S20 FE, Samsung Galaxy S20, Sony Xperia 1 III, and Xiaomi 12 Pro.

On the other hand, 45.79% of the readers surveyed said that their current phones do not come with a charger. According to the comments section, these phones included the Pixel 6 Pro, the iPhone from Apple, and the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.

• Stanley Kubrick: All the OnePlus phones I’ve received, plus the one I’m using now, all come with chargers and cables! And their phones work great no matter what people say regarding them as a company.
• M.Rao: I recently bought a samsung S 22 Ultra for $1200/- this was my first from Samsung, and my favorite was the xiomi. So it was frustrating to see that there is no charger, it needs a high capacity charger, how can Samsung make me have such a charger?? And I have to buy one from Amazon for $30.
• Tennisfreak: The S20 came with a charger. When it comes to chargers in the box, I’m of the opinion: if a phone boasts and advertises a special ultra-fast charging that requires a specific charger, it should come in the box. If no special charger is required, I don’t care if it’s in the box.
• Beardednomad: Not only does the OnePlus 10 Pro come with a charger, it comes with a charger powerful enough to charge all my devices including my laptop and chromebook.
• Jim Smith: I have many more chargers than devices to charge them with. No, it doesn’t bother me that I didn’t get another one.
• Mark Spangol: With all the different charging standards, a charger must be included. Sooner or later people choose the phone for an inline charger otherwise not all fast charging will work since every maker cooks their own charging soup. Had a Samsung a while ago and complained regarding the charger not being compatible to charge the phone, what the hell…
• Haseeb: The OnePlus 8T came with a 65W charger. It is still a hidden gem in the world of smartphones today
• Wongwatt: My OPPO Find X5 came with a SuperVOOC charger, which is really lucky because I didn’t own one of those and I always sell my phone with the charger anyway.
• Commenter: My Xiaomi 12 pro came with a 120W charger, preferably the phones come with chargers because many models offer faster charging in vain to use the current slower chargers, family members bought new iPhones and I recommended to buy the matching chargers, otherwise you lose power For faster shipping
• Robert Cassidy: Samsung didn’t send a phone charger, but they gave me a $100 coupon to buy a charger and phone protector.
• Super Wolfkin: Pixel 6 pro no. freighter
