The cable is a Lightning to USB-C cable. If you have a cable and power adapter from a previous phone you can use those. If you need to buy a new power adapter to use with the USB-C cable that came with the iPhone 12, see: Buy 20W USB-C Power Adapter - Apple or if you want to buy a USB cable for an older power adapter, see: https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MXLY2AM/A/lightning-to-usb-cable-1-m

What’s in the Box


  • iPhone
  • USB-C to Lightning Cable


As part of our efforts to reach our environmental goals, iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini do not include a power adapter or EarPods. Included in the box is a USB‑C to Lightning cable that supports fast charging and is compatible with USB‑C power adapters and computer ports.


We encourage you to re‑use your current USB‑A to Lightning cables, power adapters, and headphones which are compatible with these iPhone models. But if you need any new Apple power adapters or headphones, they are available for purchase.
