Buying new IPhone

I am buying a new IPhone and I saw the charging cable has changed so I was wondering if I could get one of the old chargers instead of the new one because I have a lot of the plugs at home for the old charger so would be a waste to have to get a new one. It would be better for the environment if I could reuse the ones I already have rather than buying a new one so if your new environmental initiative is legit then you should allow me to get an old charger rather than a new one.

iPhone 5s, iOS 12

if you got old chargers then maybe you have old cables, all of which you can use with your new phone


if you want an usb-c connector charger you can buy one https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MHJA3AM/A/20w-usb-c-power-adapter?fnode=cc8c9c9c57d656709b6518787799bc3cf8d60ddf6ca5c8a28ee1b7db47fc7357ceeea77759053128d77b3ffe365cf6ccd4c05dd7dd68f8fac2dffe1891e1e65b0dc90407a5c0df84fa3040f087d61656809601085a52dcd5e9cd41747cc196c2b758f377e58809718a0c74f79e9e708f&fs=f%3Dcharger%26fh%3D458e%252B45d4
