Apple will release the iPad 5, iPad Mini 2 and a cheaper iPad Mini this year, a triple threat to the rivals of the company.
Apple will slash off around $100 on the current iPad Mini model. While a price drop from $329 to around $250 would certainly better enable Cupertino to compete with more cheaply priced Android tablets.
The upcoming 5 generation of iPad will come in October with iPad Mini-like design.
iPad Mini 2 is speculated to feature a screen with a resolution of 2048 x 1536.
Other specs include a more powerful dual core A7 processor and a 7.9 inch screen. It will also feature a 10-hour battery life, a FaceTime HD camera, and an iSight camera with 1080 pixels HD video recording. Apple is also trying to reduce the thickness of the iPad Mini 2 by using the Sharp's IGZO (indium gallium zinc oxide) technology in its screens.
