Apple’s upcoming iPad mini may offer faster charging than previous models, thanks to a new 45W charger option. While the standard 20W charger will remain, regulatory filings suggest users could experience much faster charging with this new accessory.


20W Charger Standard in Some Regions

The seventh-generation iPad mini is expected to include a 20W fast-charging option, similar to its predecessor. However, Apple may not include the charger in every box. In regions like the United States and Canada, the 20W USB-C charger will be provided. But in countries such as the UK and Germany, Apple may follow the iPhone trend, omitting the charger.

45W Charger Brings Faster Charging Potential

Filings from China’s Compulsory Certification (3C) reveal an option for a 45W A2940 adapter, which could significantly increase charging speeds. While the iPad mini supports 20W fast charging, past tests show it can reach 25W with the right adapter. The 45W charger may push these limits, offering a faster and more efficient charging experience.


Global Differences and Expectations

As the new iPad mini rolls out globally, the packaging may vary by region, but the potential for faster charging remains consistent. Apple enthusiasts are particularly eager to see how the 45W adapter will enhance the charging experience.

Apple hasn’t officially confirmed the details about the 45W adapter, but many users are eager to test how quickly the new iPad mini can charge when using this upgraded accessory.
