A new DigiTimes report (via MacRumors) says Apple is preparing to launch a new iPad mini 7 later this year. Interestingly, this goes against what we heard from other sources regarding new iPad models for this year.
With information from the iPhone and other Apple manufacturers, DigiTimes believes Apple is preparing to release the seventh-generation iPad mini in 2023. The report says:
“In the second quarter, iPad shipments had a sequential decline higher than those of non-iPad tablets, resulting in iPads’ combined shipment share seeing two consecutive quarters of decline. However, the share will gradually pick up during the second half because of Apple’s inventory replenishment needs in the third quarter and orders for a new small-size iPad in the fourth quarter, the figures show.”
