Apple Reveals New iPad Mini’s Battery Capacity
Apple has published an EU energy label for the iPad mini 8 that reveals the device has a battery capacity of 4,900 mAh, which is slightly lower than the 5,034 mAh capacity of the previous model’s battery. However, Apple’s website lists identical battery life estimates for both models, so it appears that the improved power efficiency of the A20 Pro chip in the new iPad mini helps to offset its slightly smaller battery. The new model also has an OLED display, which can be more power efficient than an LCD when displaying dark or black content.
For those who prefer watt-hour figures, Apple’s tech specs show the new iPad mini has an 18.9 Wh battery, down from 19.3 Wh for the previous model.
| Model | Battery Capacity (mAh) | Battery Capacity (Wh) |
|---|---|---|
| iPad mini 8 | 4,900 mAh | 18.9 Wh |
| iPad mini 7 | 5,034 mAh | 19.3 Wh |
The new iPad mini features an 8.5-inch OLED display, a new Acoustic Display audio system instead of speaker holes, Wi-Fi 7 support, a 15% thinner and lighter design compared to the previous model, and more. The device is available to pre-order now and launches on Friday, November 6, with U.S. pricing starting at $699.
