Bloomberg reports that the new iPad 5 will be presented at a special event on September 10 next to the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C smartphones. This would be just a few days after all the big tech companies have presented new devices at the IFA in Berlin and during previous events, as in the case of Sony. The Berlin fair ends on September 11, but by the day before all the meat will already be on the grill.
The news agency receives the information from one of its anonymous sources, those who are always referred to as a person familiar with the matter. This unveiling is inserted among the list of devices that we will probably see in the first dates of September presented at the IFA in Berlin or at special events earlier and later. All of them will form the catalog of technology stores and department stores for the Christmas campaign.
The truth is that Lately we get a lot of images of the iPad 5. Rather of some of its pieces, as it happened this morning. The conclusion that is easily drawn from all of them is that we will be facing a tablet very similar in aesthetics to the iPad mini. Of the second generation of the latter nothing is specifically said and some rumors They pointed out that he would arrive later than his older sister, so as not to hurt his sales as happened last year.
If the forecast of the Bloomberg source is fulfilled, we would be talking about a advance of a couple of months to the famous one-year cycle of apple products. This would be the second time in a row that this temporary scheme has been broken, which, beyond serving as a guide to the specialized press, fulfills a guarantee value of non-obsolescence for consumers who make significant outlays for Apple devices.
When the fourth generation emerged, little changed except for the chip, which was not only more powerful but was much cheaper for the company. In fact, some analysts spoke that this tablet did not represent a new generation but a revision. The abandonment of numbers to count generations to compound names also suggested a change in concept. The name that this new model finally receives, together with a careful analysis of its specifications, will give us more clues.
