My charging cable is useless! New redesign charger cable versus USB plug-in

Really? I’ve gone from the iPhone 8 to an iPhone mini 12, and now you don’t provide adapters to plug into the wall and they don’t fit the existing ones because you’ve changed the configuration on the USB cord. So what am I supposed to use to use the new charger cable? Just more expense for Apple Customers! My charging cable is useless!

If you have an older charger with Lightning cable, you can use that with the new iPhone. If you have a computer with Thunderbolt 3/USB-C ports, you can use the cable that comes with the new iPhone.
