It replaces the original cell when the tablet no longer holds a charge, shuts down unexpectedly, or fails to power on. Fits the physical footprint at 151.22 × 98.66 × 2.21mm with the original ZIF connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eiPad Mini A1432 \/ A1454 \/ A1455 fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    All three models share the same battery bay dimensions, ZIF connector pinout, and charge IC handshake — the same cell works across Wi-Fi-only and cellular variants without modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through full charge and discharge cycles on an iPad Mini A1432. The BMS engaged charge termination cleanly at 4.2V and held low-voltage cutoff without false triggers under display-plus-radio load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel gauge reset after installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, run the iPad down to automatic shutoff, then charge uninterrupted to 100%. This gives the fuel gauge IC a full reference cycle against the new cell and clears the inaccurate percentage readings that almost always appear after a swap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eiPad Mini shutting down at 15–25% remaining\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the original cell's internal resistance has climbed high enough that combined display and Wi-Fi load pulls the voltage below the BMS cutoff threshold — even though the reported percentage still looks safe. The fuel gauge IC was calibrated to the degraded cell, so its 20% reading no longer maps to a real voltage level. A new cell fixes the underlying voltage sag, but the gauge still needs one full discharge-to-shutoff cycle to recalibrate. After that cycle, unexpected cutoffs at 15–25% stop occurring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eiPad Mini showing wrong battery percentage after battery replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe fuel gauge IC in the iPad Mini learns the capacity curve of the cell it was last calibrated against. Drop in a new cell and the IC is still referencing the old cell's data, so it reports percentages that jump, stall, or read high until the device cuts off. Run one full discharge to automatic shutoff, then charge in one uninterrupted session to 100%. The IC uses that cycle to map voltage to capacity on the new cell. After a single complete cycle, percentage display stabilises.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43426086027354,"sku":"BWCS-IPA144SL-1","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43426086060122,"sku":"BWCS-IPA144SL-2","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43426086092890,"sku":"BWCS-IPA144SL-3","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-IPA144SL-1.webp?v=1779930307","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/apple-ipad-mini-replacement-battery-37v-4490mah-li-polymer","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
