Apple to Release 12.9-inch iPad By End of Q3 2014 at Earliest?

Posted January 18, 2014 at 6:13am by iClarified
Apple will release a 12.9-inch iPad by the end of Q3 at the earliest, according to a new report from DigiTimes.

The site expects Apple and Samsung to top tablet vendors in 2014 with shipments of 80-90 million and 60-70 million units, respectively.

Samsung's recent launch of its 12.2-inch model is expected to propel Apple to accelerate development of large-size iPads. Market sources indicated that Apple is likely to release a 12.9-inch model by the end of the third quarter at the earliest.


Samsung is allegedly working to launch more Galaxy Lite models with prices going as low as $129. Apple has reportedly asked production partners and component suppliers to develop new 7.9-inch and 9.7-inch tablets.

The same site previously reported that Apple would launch a larger iPad in October 2014, to target North America's educational market. It's said that Quanta Computer will be tapped to produce the tablet.

Inroducing another attempt for scamdung to rush their products again, remember the watch, after I watch idea was released, day after day here samsunk just revealed their watch and released it yet it barely does anything, and the cycle continues to repeat even if this comes to troll supporters fan club. This idea has been going on a while, now samsung, then their rush product, then a fail, repeat.

Face the facts, are costs going to save their asses any longer, power is what matters, look at the benchmarks, you call it best any longer?

Spam all you want, someone posts an article, you follow with myths no matter what you say, the watch was rushed after the iWatch idea, this tablet will do the same.

the iWatch doesn't even exist! Its made up by the community. The Gear was not a fail because of the battery, That thing needed less features (it has to much) and at last 2Weeks battery. That made it a failure. The Note 10.1 and Pro 12.2 are perfect and complete tablets not rushed products.

I'd like to know when you understand dates when you see them because this fax crap is a myth you think Apple would message you for.

Actually, a letter-size tablet would be ideal if you're to replace textbooks.

I don't mind them releasing a bigger iPad as long as this doesn't mean the sunfish tablet idea due to size.
