According to an Apple support article posted yesterday, it appears to be that the MagSafe charger will be less capable on the iPhone 12 mini that, in the rest of the models , and that is, Although the rest of iPhone models 12 are capable of charging 15 W, iPhone 11 mini only reaches 12 W.

The reasons why this limitation exists are unknown, although some theories suggest that could be the smallest size of the terminal that prevents an effective dissipation of the heat generated by the induction effect, or, on the other hand, that is a form of preserve battery health l terminal , which could also be affected by too high charging power.

Similarly, these 12 W load is a maximum measure , because if for example we have some EarPods with cable connected to the terminal, as well as any other type of accessory that works through the Lightning port, the maximum charging power will be reduced to 7.5W , something that according to Apple is to comply with regulatory standards.

In any case, these are the specifications that the iPhone has 12 mini when charging through MagSafe, which we remember, debuts in this generation of smartphones from the company.
