The Apple event concluded last week without giving any sort of details for the highly anticipated iPad Air, but optimistic enthusiasts of Apple's Air product line are speculating that the purported ultra-thin tablet will be announced at some point next year.
Taking the present statistics regarding tablet sales in recent years and the arrival of Apple's new leading phone into consideration, avid users and tech analysts believe that the iPad Air 3's release could be delayed until 2017, according to Vine Report.
Several reports from earlier last week hinted that Apple made a few changes and improvements with the storage capacities for the current iPad models, maximizing the size but keeping the prize unchanged.
iPad Air 3 Cancelled?
Other recently surfaced reports speculate that the iPad Air 3 has been cancelled. While this is a mere hypothesis, several clues hint to a solid probability of a new line of iPad tablets being announced instead. It is worth noting that the equally-anticipated 2016 MacBook Air was also kept under wraps at the last Apple event, indicating a mere postponement in release rather than getting rid of its product line altogether. This is likely to be the case with the iPad Air, specifically the iPad Air 3, iTechPost reported.
iPad Air 3 Specs & Features
Though the Cupertino-based tech firm has remained silent and has refrained from unveiling any kind of insights about the iPad Air 3, bits of rumors are running widespread that the much-awaited device will be powered by either an A10 or A10X processor, which gives it an edge over the current iPad Air models. Additionally, the tablet could go as thin as 5mm, unlike the current 6.1mm iteration. In the bid to avoid another "Bendgate" disaster from happening, the back panel could be bulked up with the latest series of the aluminum casing.
iPad Air 3 Price
The much-lauded tablet is likely to be offered from $400 to $600 initially. Those waiting with bated breath for the much-awaited Apple tablet should keep themselves updated with the current news about the popular tech firm.
