Apple tocmai a anuntat ca a vandut 3 milioane de tablete iPad Mini si iPad 4 in weekend-ul ce tocmai s-a incheiat. iPad Mini si iPad 4 au fost lansate in peste 30 de tari de pe intregul glob, iar vanzarile ambelor modele au depasit cifra de 3 milioane in doar 3 zile. In martie iPad 3 a fost cumparata in 1.5 milioane de exemplare de catre persoane de pe intregul glob, insa vanzarile pentru aceste noi produse au dublat cele inregistrate acum mai bine de jumatate de an.
Din pacate Apple nu spune cate modele ale fiecarei tablete a vandut in propriile magazine, insa probabil iPad Mini a avut cea mai mare cerere, iPad 4 fiind mai putin interesanta pentru cei care au achizitionat deja iPad 3. Aceasta lansare este cea mai “de succes” facuta vreodata de catre Apple pentru vreo tableta iPad, iar anuntul confirma faptul ca lumea inca este extrem de interesata sa achizitioneze tablete iPad, asta in ciuda faptului ca vanzarile au scazut in Q3 2012.
