Apple doesn't offer a USB-C power adapter in the iPad mini 7 box
A bit of a blow for those interested in purchasing an iPad mini 7. Apple reveals on its official website that the box contains, of course, the touchscreen tablet, the USB-C charging cable and nothing more than that.No 20W USB-C power adapter inside it. The iPad mini 6 did contain one, but Apple decided to change its approach for its new product.
The Cupertino company's decision is not particularly surprising, since it has already removed the charger from the box of the iPad, iPad Air and iPad Pro, but also the iPhone. Remember that Apple justifies this particularly controversial choice made a few years ago byits desire to reduce its environmental impact.In any case, you will therefore need to obtain a power adapter compatible with this new iPad mini separately or use that of another of your Apple devices.
The iPad mini 7 is available for pre-orderfrom €609 (128 GB version) on the official Apple website for availability from October 26. You can also purchase the new tablet from the Apple brand from resellers for the same prices. However, don't forget that you will have towait until 2025 to take advantage of Apple Intelligence features on the iPad mini 7.
