Yonke into yayibonakala ibonisa, kuquka nentetho kaTim Cook ngaye, ukuba iPad Mini yenzelwe ukukhuphisana Nexus 7, kodwa ekubeni kwaqala ukufunisela ngaye, kwakucingwa ukuba ziingcali ukuba, eneneni, wayeya kuba ngumchasi welizwe. iPad. Kubonakala ngathi abasebenzisi baye bagqiba ukukhanyela ngokupheleleyo iingcali, ngokwedatha yophononongo lwamva nje: Ithebhulethi ye-Apple compact yesininzi inosetyenziso oluthile, kwaye ayisetyenziswanga ukutshintsha nasiphi na esinye isixhobo.
Iziphumo zophononongo lwabathengi kwi iPad mini ehamba kwicala elichasene nalo lonke uqikelelo lweengcaphephe kwaye, nangona kunjalo, luhambelana ngokupheleleyo nokuvela kwemarike yethebhulethi: kuphela ipesenti encinci yabathengi iPad mini Bafuna ukuvala indawo yabo yangaphambili iPad. Enyanisweni, ngokwedatha evezwe ngu ZonkeIzintoD, uninzi lwabathengi (83%) abafuni buyisela akukho sixhobo, kodwa endaweni yoko ifunyenwe kuguqulelo oludibeneyo lwethebhulethi edumileyo iapile usetyenziso oluthile olunokuthi umphelelisi kwezinye izixhobo kodwa ungazitshintshi. Kwanaphakathi kwegcuntswana labo bacinga ukuba lilandela esinye isixhobo, ayisiyiyo neyo iPad ireferensi ephambili (29%), kodwa i PC nge Windows (42%). Ngoko ke, kubonakala ukuba xa kuthelekiswa nabahlalutyi abaxela kwangaphambili ukuba i-tablet ye-7-intshi ye iapile uya kutya phakathi kwe-10 kunye ne-20% yeentengiso zomntakwabo omdala, oyena mntu ulahlekileyo, ukuba ukhona, uya kuba Microsoft.
Nangona kunjalo, njengoko sisithi, ezi datha zihambelana ngokupheleleyo kunye ngokubanzi esisele sibonile kwi ukuvela kwemarike yethebhulethi, eyona nto iqhubeka ikhula kwaye apho indima yobukhulu obuncinci (kunye nexabiso) iipilisi zidlala indima ebalulekileyo, okwenza olu hlobo lwesixhobo lufikeleleke kubaphulaphuli ababanzi. Ngenxa ye iPad mini inokuba nefuthe elifanayo kwiitafile ze-Apple njenge Nexus 7, Uhlobo lomlilo HD kunye nezinye iipilisi ezinexabiso eliphantsi kuye kwafuneka ukuba Android, mhlawumbi uphinde ucinge kwakhona uqikelelo ngokwendlela yokusebenza ye Uphando yayiza kulawula icandelo phakathi kulo nyaka uzayo. Njengesiqhelo, ixesha liya kuyalela isigwebo.
