How Apple made iPhone 12 Mini's price low

To make the iPhone 12 Mini's price as low as possible, Apple had to sacrifice some features. That's why the tech giant manufacturer gave a 12W charging limit for the device's MagSafe.

However, it is still faster compared to other wireless chargers. Some of them only have a 7.5W limit. Since the iPhone 12 models don't have a power adapter, many people question the devices' charging abilities.
