Confirm chop head iPad mini issue Liao. I have 3 x iPhone 5 charger and 6 x iPad mini charger. I test every one of them with different cable and even with my newly bought 30pin -9pin adapter. I let my iPad mini drop the battery percentage to about 86% and start charging. All 100% stop at 90%. I have escalate the issue to Apple help desk and the senior tech also tell me some report such issue. He told me to try different charger and cable yesterday. That's what I did today and I have drop him a mail on this since today Apple Helpdesk not open.
Tua Kee Liao... Time to exchange iPad mini..
I have change my iPhone 5 3 times liao and now my iPad mini also start the trend. Hope my iPad 4 is ok...

i try charging mine now and see. its at 64% batt life. previously when i tried charging from 80+% it's able to charge to 100%. If really its ipad issue, den i sianz... no time to go down service centre.

Yes, I did that.

If u have a USB3.0 port available, try charging the ipad mini thru it and c the result.

Maybe I will try charging my ipad mini from <10% up soon using the supplied 5W adapter. :/

Keep us updated about what the apple tech reply u after the escalation of ur case. Thank you :)

Hi guys, for those bros experiencing slowness with Singtel and AppStore can try adding proxy.singnet.com.sg port 8080. It helped me most of the time when I try download from US AppStore.

Hi, I still holding on the session with the senior tech in Apple. This round will be critical as he want me to do a OS restore. Which I need to backup. I need to seek my wife permission to do so (even I backup) as she rely on this iPad Mini alot. Worst come to worst, I pass her my iPad 4 or my kid's iPad 3 first.
I dun think restore OS will help. Nevertheless I can try. This will be done during the weekend as I will be free. Cannot do in office as my iTune system is at home.
