iPad 10 was already powered on in box new from Apple Factory

I ordered my Apple iPad 10 from Apple.com and it arrived in a sealed box as expected. When I opened the box and unwrapped the iPad it was already powered on - it lit up to the “hello” screen and showed 95% battery. Is this normal or has my iPad been tampered with? Do new iPads arrive turned on in the box new from factory? Should I be worried?


thanks!!

iPad 10th generation can be woken by tapping the screen Wake and unlock iPad - Apple Support (CA)


No doubt this is what you did while unwrapping it.


Had it been awake the whole time since boxing the battery would have been at 0.0 %.
