Fight on between Ipad Mini and Nexus 7


Apple is soon going to come up with the latest Ipad Mini that is going to fight with the Nexus 7. This is going to be a 7- or 8-inch version of the Ipad and fresh reports confirmed that Ipad is going to get its new color soon. Just a week ago, Google launched a $200 7-inch tablet, the popular Nexus 7 that is just awesome and is now a threat for Nook as well as kindle. Apple has not launched any of its models this year but is all set to come up with the Ipad Mini that is going to be launched in October. This is going to be sold for about $200 just like the Nexus 7 and the Kindle fire. However, by the end the cheapest 7-inch tablet will be Nook certainly. However, there is a twist well before toss. Apple has been able to lower the price, as the new device is not going to have the very popular features of the Retina display in high definition. Bloomberg has aired the report. It will be harder for apple Ipad developer to design new apps for this model.
However, the rumors have not cleared that what other hardware features if any will be dropped from the standard Ipad as an example LTE radio or front and rear facing cameras. It might be that we get lower storage capacity as compared to the 16GB and higher versions of the present Ipad application development format.
Apple has been able to grab the number one market leader position for tablet over the years. However, with Google announcing its release Nexus 7 and Microsoft announcing its Windows 8- based tablets, the Surface later this year has certainly forced Apple to come up with something new. There is a trend of the bargain basement tablets from Apple’s strongest rivals and the heat of the competition has certainly made the Apple think twice with its Ipad 3 developments. Some of the other tablets that have created a spark are the Android-based IdeaPad A1 as well as Barnes & Noble’s Nook tablet. Yet another cause for spark in the competition is the 16GB BlackBerry Playbook.
According to a recent survey conducted by Price Grabber found around 52 percent of the surveyed people ready to buy this Ipad Mini. You need to remember what Late Sir Steve Jobs said about the 7-inch tablets few years back in 2010. He publically criticized the idea of 7-inch Tablet and he added that such small space is certainly not enough to make better tablet apps. That was the opinion of the great giant during 2010.
However, the former co-founder of Apple has been famous for disapproving some products well before Apple came into business and did offered some of the products like iPod, mobile Phones as well as e-Books. The speculation for Ipad Mini has been during 2010 as well as 2011. However, it will be clear by the end of October what we have this time.
