Spring - a great time for rampant analysts, almost every day was forecast for future devices Apple. In this case the plates were put under the distribution .
Brainy guys believe that this year we will see a new model iPad Air and Retina iPad mini, which will acquire the biometric sensor and proprietary Touch ID A8 processor production TSMC ( and maybe Samsung). And the consumer wants a huge tablet from Apple, as a response to the 12.2 -inch Galaxy NotePro. "This year, do not wait " - say analysts .
In particular, today the role of prophet Vanga themselves tried Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI, which should not be underestimated . More than once he gave accurate predictions , based on its own sources as well as on the original methods of market analysis. According to him , Apple uses " new products in combination with a reasonable price adjustment " for moderate growth in sales of tablets before the end of the calendar year.
As for the characteristics of new products , the next generation iPad Air , according to the analyst , will get the newest generation Apple A8, manufactured by TSMC, and fingerprint sensor Touch ID and 8 - megapkselnoy main camera . In the sale , he should arrive a little earlier than expected, namely , at the end of the third quarter of 2014 .
Retina iPad mini will have the same technical innovations , despite the failure of the expectations of Apple in terms of sales . Device bought up much more slowly than planned economists American company. Ming-Chi Kuo blames the increased thickness of the gadget. According to him, this practice is not the best in the past affected the sales of full-size tablets and people often opted for iPad 2 due to reduced weight and thickness in comparison with the news . Only after two generations of Apple could release more interesting in terms of weight and size characteristics of the 10-inch iPad.
But it seems to me , the problem is not " plump " and potyazhelevshy iPad mini. Still, the difference of 0.3 mm and a couple dozen grams is not too noticeable. Rather blame decent delay sales of compact tablet and display, which although got Retina- resolution color decently but inferior screen in iPad Air.
Analysts believe that the Retina iPad mini to keep the size of the second generation predecessor, but will be produced in limited quantities . With the current model will remain in production and will be sold at a discounted price .
That is , Apple plans to make the old tablet , which claims in terms of speed , in principle, no . A novelty is present for the crazy geeks who need all new and fashionable , despite the fact that experience increased performance can be achieved only after six months , and even later , when there will be appropriate applications .
A lot of excitement among analysts and consumers is a 12-inch iPad, which was released predicting the current year. But Ming-Chi Kuo, an opinion on this subject:
We think that with the 12.9 -inch iPad , Apple will introduce a new user interface, which is quite innovative and intuitive for equally effective input as in the case of devices with [ physical ] keyboard.
It is developing a new interface that would use the maximum possible large display can affect the release date for the big iPad. Analysts believe that it is worth to wait until 2015 .
In general, Ming-Chi Kuo is not waiting for a breakthrough in Apple tablet sales this year and predicts the traditional growth comparable to the company's success in the past. According to him, in 2014, the American manufacturer sells approximately 73.5 million iPad.
