Yea people should stop complaining about this. Cables that come with phones are always crappy anyway, and I prefer chargers that have multiple outputs.

It's bizarre how reviewers very quickly gave up on complaining that (other) phones don't have headphone jacks or expandable storage, but keep hanging on the no charger thing.

It's like complaining the phone doesn't come with a SIM or electricity. Some stuff you just provide yourself.

Well, agree to disagree I guess. I am never going to stop complaining that £850 phone can only work as a paperweight after 24 or so hours unless I already have some charger.

Why not just buy a bulletproof charger with multiple ports that will last a decade for all your devices, and good, 2m or longer, braided cables?

Or do you really only have one device and one charger for it, with no backups, nothing for travel?
