Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities who has a good track record when it comes to predicting Apple product plans has issued a new research report to investors, in which he has made some interesting predictions.
Here are some of the highlights from that report:
- Kuo claims that Apple is working on a more affordable budget iMac, which will be launched next year. Currently, the cheapest iMac is the 21.5-inch iMac, which starts at $1299. He feels that the entry price of redesigned ultra-slim iMac that was launched last year is too high, which is contributing to the fall in Mac shipments. Kuo hasn’t provided any further details about the cheaper iMac model such the pricing, specifications etc.
- Kuo reiterates that the 2nd generation iPad mini, which is widely expected to be unveiled at the media event on October 22, will feature Retina Display.
- He reports that Apple has not surprisingly already started working on the 3rd generation iPad mini, which will come with the same resolution as this year’s Retina iPad mini.
- Interestingly, he predicts that Apple will increase the resolution on the 6th generation iPad, which will be launched next year along with iPad mini 3.
