With the release of iPhone SE and iPad Pro, Apple also brought a special accessory - Lightning to USB-C cable, which can significantly improve the charging speed of iPad Pro.
We got the 1-meter version of the connection line from Lightning to USB-C, officially Price 188 yuan 。 For a data line, the price is expensive.
The back of the package shows that the function of this cable is to connect iPhone and Macbook. Of course, this is not what we tested this time.
A simple explanation is attached with the cable. The cable is much thicker than the general Lightning data cable, and is full of materials.
One side is USB Type-C interface, and the other side is Apple Lightning interface. Both sides support front and back plugging.
Back to our main character today, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, in addition to supporting 5.2V 2.4A In addition to the standard of the original iPad Pro charger (12W power), there is a high-voltage mode, 14.5V 2A This standard corresponds to the power adapter of the new Macbook.
USB Type-C power adapter for new Macbook, maximum support 29W Charging, support 5V 2.4A and 14.5V 2A , just like the logo on the back of the iPad Pro, it can be seen that Apple deliberately "left a hand". The official price of this adapter is 388 yuan. Yes, everyone is right. The price of a power adapter 388 yuan 。
On the left is the USB Type-C power adapter, and on the right is the iPad's 12W power adapter, which is obviously different in size.
In the final assembly diagram, it is necessary to charge the iPad Pro battery with high power up to 10307mAh.
According to our actual measurement, it only takes 158 minutes for the iPad Pro to go from zero to full charge. Compared with the charging time of more than 4 hours for its own 12W adapter, this performance is really impressive. After using the new Macbook power adapter, the charging speed of the iPad Pro is improved immediately, but this fast charging is expensive, 576 yuan for adapter and data cable It may also be difficult for ordinary users to accept. If you have a new Macbook, you might as well wait for the third party's Lightning to USB-C cable, which may only cost tens of yuan to complete the major upgrade of iPad Pro charging speed.
