iPad Mini Reportedly Set for October Launch at $200 or $250
There are further rumors that suggest Apple will in fact be launching a smaller version of its crazy-successful iPad tablet. The latest one reveals that the smaller iPad will be getting an October launch and will retail for either $200 or $250. Prior to this revelation, many rumors about the internet suggested that Apple had a 7.85-inch iPad in the works. The rumor contains other information such as the new ‘mini’ iPad will look just like the new iPad except that it will be scaled down proportionately.
It will also apparently feature a display resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels which is what is available on the manufacturer’s popular new iPad. If the rumors are to be believed, the more affordable tablet could pose a serious threat to other tablet manufacturers who seem to only be keeping afloat in the tablet market because of their own versions of low-cost tablets. As far as the ‘roughly 10-inch category’ of tablets is concerned however, the iPad is definitely the dominant one hands down. For companies such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble the threat is even more serious due to the fact that in addition to their e-readers, they also offer low-cost tablets.
Now here’s an iPhone 6S case that will certainly turn heads, especially when you take into consideration its name which is known as the OnePlus iPhone 6S case. That’s rather weird, don’t you think so? It will certainly take some getting used to before the name rolls off your tongue naturally. Well, we do know that The OnePlus iPhone 6S case can now be purchased for $19.99 a pop, and no, you do not need any kind of invite before you can snag one for yourself.
Each purchase will also be accompanied by an invitation to purchase a OnePlus X, just in case, you know, you would like to tread the Android waters. All in all, it comes in the kind of material as found on the OnePlus One and OnePlus X, which makes it a whole lot harder to lose grip of when you hold it – which is good!
If you are on the lookout for either the iPhone 6S or the iPhone 6S Plus, then here is news for you – chances are pretty high that you can pick up either one, or perhaps even both if you are feeling fat in the pocket, this coming September 18th. First of all, there was a leaked internal memo from Vodafone alongside Japanese site ITHome and German tech experts Macerkopf claiming that the new iPhones 6S models will roll out this coming September 18th in their respective countries
With Japan, Germany and the UK being tier one Apple launch countries, this means that those living in the mentioned countries will receive the iPhones at the same time as folks living over in the US – traditionally speaking, of course. There really isn’t that much time left to wait, as it is less than a month away, and I am quite sure that the time will pass by sooner than you think.
It looks like the folks over at Digitimes have come up with their own interpretation of things to come – that there will be no iPad Air 3 released, at least for this year. Digitimes has had their fair share of hits and misses in the past, so it would be best to take this rumor concerning the non-release of the iPad Air 3 in 2015 with a pinch of salt.
Digitimes also laid claim that the iPad mini 4 will not be as supercharged as some of the rumors that had been going around, as it will bring with it only small and incremental upgrades when compared to its predecessor, the iPad mini 3. This does not seem to bode well for fans of the compact tablet, taking into consideration how the iPad mini 3 itself was improved over its predecessor with a new Touch ID fingerprint reader.
Since Apple tends to roll out a new iPad in October, we will just have to sit tight and see whether this particular rumor has enough “legs” to run.
