Our new iPad 10 came with a usb c connector too. In the US.

It's progress! I believe that's the only regular iPad that has ever come with USB-C. Thank the EU, which required it! Gens 1-9 had the proprietary Lightning connector...

It’s actually kind of a pain because we have so many lightning cables set up where the old iPad (RIP) and our older phones charge.

I’m also a little dubious of the longevity of usb-c ports. 2 of the 4 on my MacBook are less that reliable when plugged into the charger.

Hopefully the iPad works out. The last one lasted us almost 10 years.
