wireless charging?

I have owned 2 Fire Tablets by Amazon-and both had charging issues within 18 months of use. Sadly, I really liked it but am so frustrated by the assinine charging issue.I have tested different/new cords and adaptors and wall plugs, fiddled with positions of cords and adaptors to no avail.

I am tired of dealing with weak insertion points and now want to go wirelessly. Are there any Ipads that use the QI wireless charging capabilities? I need wifi, qi charging, 256g or the 64g IF I can use a micro sd card for added storage, and truly wouldn't mind the size of the mini if it did charge wirelessly. I don't know what NanoSIM or eSIM are and if that makes the sim card slot unusable to add more storage to the tablet. Thanks a million for any suggestions or advice.

No iPads support wireless charging.


No iPads support sd cards.


You can to some extent use the charging port to add ane external storage device, but that would not permanently add storage to your iPad.


See:

Connect external devices or servers with Files on iPad - Apple Support


To some degree you can also use an iCloud to offload some of the data like pictures from your iPad, allowing you to store more on it. If you turn on Optimize Storage

Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support


Good luck!
