Apple Does Not Include a Charger With All New MacBooks in UK and EU
None of the new MacBook Neo, MacBook Air, or MacBook Pro models unveiled this week come with a charger in the UK and EU countries, such as Germany, France, Italy, and Spain. This change began with the base 14-inch MacBook Pro last year.
If you need a power adapter, you must purchase one separately during checkout or later.
In all other countries, Apple includes a charger in the box with these Macs, at no additional cost. In the U.S., for example, the MacBook Neo ships with Apple's 20W USB-C Power Adapter (sold separately for $19), while the 16-inch MacBook Pro comes with Apple's 140W USB-C Power Adapter (sold separately for $99).
Apple includes a USB-C or MagSafe 3 charging cable with all of the new MacBooks sold worldwide.
