There’s never long between Apple launching a new product and the first sales forecasts. Digitimes has a somewhat mixed track record, but for whatever it may be worth its research wing is estimating that Apple will sell four million 9.7-inch iPad Pros in the first half of this year.
It’ll be interesting to compare this number with others that we’re likely to hear in the coming days.
The company is almost certainly right, though, that the newly-reduced $399 starting price of the iPad Air 2 is likely to see that as the biggest seller in the iPad range despite the launch of the new model – though to be fair, Air 2s have been selling for $100-$125 off on 9to5toys since before Christmas.
If the company’s forecast is correct, that could see Apple finally ending the two-year decline in iPad sales.Filed under: iOS Devices Tagged: 9.7-inch iPad Pro, iPad, iPad Pro, iPad Pro sales
