Apple this year launched a new iPad supported by chip M1: 11-inch and 12.9 inch pro iPad.
What is the ideal tablet size that must always be a debatable topic, which has seen tablets in various display sizes launched on the market, ranging from 8 inches to 12.9 inches.
And for the next iPad, Apple might have decided to go by a bigger look, as claimed by Mark Gurman in his ‘power on’ bulletin for Bloomberg.
Apple has engineers and designers who explore greater form factors, claim gurman in the bulletin.
He also added that this new iPad was still a few more years from being launched, “a few years at the earliest.” Will the screen greater than 12.9 inches? The display of 13 inches or more will only make the device more preferred by customers who bought it mainly to use it as a laptop.
That means investing in a magical keyboard also that will cost extra.
How do potential buyers who don’t like to use iPad as a PC respond to it? Everything blurred now because no one was announced or sedated by Apple about this problem.
The best-selling iPad at Q1 2021 has become an 8.2-inch entry of Apple iPad 8.2 inches, according to the report with a rival research.
According to Senior Counterpoint analyst, Liz Lee, “the basic iPad model contributed 56% of the overall iPad shipments on Q1 2021.” The second and third tablet is the iPad Air series and iPad Pro, with 19% and 18% of the shares, respectively.
“Because consumers are constantly worried about prices and portability, the latest iPad 8 appears as the best-selling model,” Lee said.
Consider this, the possibility of moving by Apple to build an iPad with a larger appearance seems contradictory.
Because the iPad entry-level has become a hit with customers around the world, maybe this technology giant thinks to make larger tablets get bigger fans to follow too.
