Product Description
The iPad Mini 5 (2019) was Apple’s first Mini update in four years, and it remains in active daily use across repair shop inventories worldwide. The reason: it runs the same A12 Bionic chip as the iPhone XS, making it fast enough for most business and education use cases in 2026. That sustained demand keeps the battery replacement market for this model firmly alive.
The A1725 battery uses a 1S1P Li-polymer cell configuration — a single cell, single parallel path — at 3.82V nominal with a rated capacity of 5124mAh / 19.32Wh. The OEM internal part number cross-reference is 616-00543, used in teardown documentation and repair manuals. Our unit is built on a custom pure-cobalt cathode cell , wound to match the exact footprint of the OEM pack. Cobalt-cathode chemistry is the correct choice here: it delivers a flat, stable voltage curve across the discharge range, which the Mini 5’s PMU expects to accurately calculate remaining charge percentage.

Features & Advantages
✅ Custom Pure-Cobalt Cell — Not a Commodity Grade
The A1725 pack is built on a custom cobalt-cathode Li-polymer cell, not a mixed NMC commodity cell. Nominal capacity: 5124mAh / 19.32Wh. Actual measured capacity at 25°C: ≥ 95% of rated. Formation cycling is completed before pack assembly. Every batch carries a production date code traceable to cell supplier QC records — available on request for bulk orders.
✅ Texas Instruments BMS — No “Service Battery” Warnings
The protection IC is sourced from Texas Instruments, matching the communication protocol the iPad Mini 5’s system PMU expects. This ensures accurate battery percentage reporting and prevents the “Service Battery” alert that appears when third-party BMS chips misreport state-of-charge data. Validated on iPadOS 15, 16, and 17 — no system alerts generated.
✅ 1S1P Pack Configuration — OEM-Matched Geometry
Single-cell, single-parallel construction matches the OEM pack’s physical envelope precisely. The ZIF flex connector length, orientation, and pinout are OEM-spec. No trimming, adapter cables, or adhesive channel modification required. Installation follows standard iFixit guide steps without deviation.
✅ 0-Cycle, Grade A Cell — Ships Uncycled
Every unit ships with 0 charge cycles logged. Capacity is confirmed at ≥ 95% before packaging. No refurbished, pulled, or re-wrapped cells are used in this SKU. Batch QC reports available upon request for orders of 100 units and above.
✅ Matte Black Housing — Matches OEM Appearance
The cell housing is finished in matte black , identical in color and texture to the OEM battery. This matters for repair shops offering screen-off repair documentation — the finished interior looks correct in after-repair photos, which reduces customer disputes.
✅ Wholesale-Ready Packaging & Low MOQ
Mixed orders accepted from 50 units across models. Each unit ships in individual anti-static blister packaging with MSDS-compliant outer carton for air freight. Custom OEM labeling (your brand, SKU stickers, retail blister) available from 200 units. Artwork review lead time: 3–5 business days.

FAQ
Q1: Is this A1725 battery compatible with all iPad Mini 5 variants, including cellular models?
A: Yes. The A1725 is the OEM battery used across all five iPad Mini 5 model numbers: A2133 (Wi-Fi), A2124 (Global Cellular), A2126 (US/CA/AU Cellular), A2125 (China Cellular), and A2114. Physical dimensions, flex connector pinout, and voltage profile are identical across all variants. No adapter or modification is required for any of these models.
Q2: How long will the iPad Mini 5 battery last after replacement?
A: Under typical mixed-use conditions — roughly 5–7 hours of active screen time per day — this battery maintains above 80% of its rated 5124mAh capacity for a minimum of 600 full charge cycles. That translates to approximately 18–24 months of daily use before noticeable degradation. Capacity retention beyond that depends on ambient temperature and charging behavior. Avoid sustained charging at 100% for extended periods.
Q3: Will this battery show a “Service Battery” warning or report incorrect percentage on the iPad Mini 5?
A: No. The Texas Instruments BMS chip in this pack communicates correctly with the iPad Mini 5’s power management IC. The “Service Battery” warning is triggered by non-compliant BMS chips that misreport state-of-charge data. We have validated this battery on iPadOS 15, 16, and 17 — no system alerts, and battery percentage reporting is accurate from the first charge cycle.
Q4: Does the battery need calibration or activation after installation?
A: No special activation is needed. For accurate percentage display, run one full charge-discharge cycle within the first 48 hours: charge to 100%, use the device until it shuts off at 0%, then charge back to 100% uninterrupted. After this single calibration cycle, the fuel gauge will track accurately.
Q5: What is the minimum order quantity, and do you accept mixed model orders?
A: The MOQ for standard wholesale orders is 50 units. Mixed orders across compatible models (A2133, A2124, A2126, A2125, A2114) count toward the same MOQ threshold — you do not need 50 units of a single model. Tiered pricing applies at 100, 200, and 500+ unit breaks. Sample orders for quality evaluation start at 5 units.
Q6: What certifications does this battery carry, and can it be shipped internationally by air?
A: This battery holds UN38.3, CE, RoHS, and MSDS documentation — the complete set required for legal air transport of lithium-polymer cells. We ship regularly to the EU, UK, US, Canada, Australia, and Southeast Asia via DHL, FedEx, and UPS without customs holds. Digital certificate copies are provided before your first order is placed. Hard copies can be included in-carton on request.
