Phones do not ship charged, and I’m sure that the need for a charger will be prominently advertised both online and in store.

- theshrike79 6y agoWhat kind of magical creature grabs the phone from the package, charges it, repackages it and puts it in the shelf for me to buy? I've bought exactly 0 phones with 0% battery EVER, and I got my first phone in -97.
- senkora 6y agoInteresting, my experience has been different, though I haven’t actually checked this in several years (I just always charge electronics first). It seems like electronics used to ship uncharged because partially charging NiCad batteries harms them, and shipping fully charged batteries is dangerous. Nowadays, Lithium batteries are typically charged at 30% capacity before shipping. Lithium batteries were sometimes sent uncharged for some period of time in between.
