Apple iPad mini starting production in Brazil?
Share:
The latest rumor involving the Apple iPad mini is that on October 10th, the Cupertino based tech titan will send out invitations for a press event. This would confirm earlier reports that Apple would have an October event for the 7.85 inch tablet separate from the September introduction of the Apple iPhone 5. Most likely Apple didn't want the media attention focused on one device to cannibalize what would have been the attention focused on the other device. With the world wide media focus that the Apple iPhone receives, had the Apple iPad mini been introduced last month alongside the handset, it might have ended up being swept aside amongst an avalanche of stories about the larger 4 inch screen, the faster processor and the LTE connectivity on the new iPhone 5.
The Apple iPad mini is expected to compete in the low priced tablet category where the Amazon Kindle Fire and the Google Nexus 7 dwell. Last year during the holiday season, the freshly launched Amazon Kindle Fire, competed strongly against the Apple iPad 2. The Apple iPad mini is said to look more like the Apple iPhone than the Apple iPad, with a screen surrounded by a bezel.

if the price is appropriate ...... around 200-300$ for 16gb would be a really good deal..

LOL.........whats sad is people only seem to know about the nexus 7 and the ipad and no one even knows much about the Sony XperiaTablet S.......which, in my opinion, is like the ipad (has beauty) but running android! people should seriously check it out

Nexus 7 will be better..You can bet on it..
Because-
ipad mini will surely not have A6 or a quad core processor
N7 have tegra's raw power
iPad's screen will probably not be retina one(according to rumours).N7- better screen
N7- Android freedom
Storage will be a problem in ipad mini as it will not have usb otg as compared to N7.
Price factor-who thinks Apple will price the ipad mini at the tempting price of 200$ ?? !

I "know" they wont price it at 200 dollars! it could be missing everything in the world and they still wouldnt do that :(

I disagree your screen part...
Yes it may not retina but will still better screen than others...

You are right wendy..
It may happen that would be better than nexus 7.
Sorry for posting wrong..

since when a quad core is better?it depends of the engineering to let the processor speed to be speedy!
i really dont know why android (people) are so power hungry...

I didn't meant that it should be quad core as I know that processor architecture matters.
I meant that iPad Mini will surely not have A6 chip and will instead have A5X chip which is certainly not better than Tegra 3..
