Fifth Generation iPad To Launch In September 2013
Well the rumor sites are awash with news right now that the brand new Apple iPad 5 will launch in September 2013, with the second generation iPad Mini (which we hope picks up a retina screen) soon afterwards.
According to AppleInsider today, ‘The fifth-generation iPad is expected to adopt a design similar to that of the iPad mini, including more rounded edges and a thinner bezel. Leaked schematics have suggested the new iPad will also be thinner than its predecessor, while well-connected analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of KGI Securities has said the device will be 25 percent lighter’.
Apple are said to still be debating whether to add a retina screen to the iPad Mini which debuted with the surprise launch of the fourth generation iPad in October last year.
