iPhone 6 with 4.7 inch screen is being prepared for release this fall by the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, the American company looking to substantially increase its product sales. Although Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), American analysts are trying to increase iPhone sales I think that iPhone 6 could affect tablet sales iPad Mini. According to a well-known American analyst, iPhone 6 launch will motivate enough iDevice owners to upgrade to the new terminal, ignoring this year's model of the tablet iPad Mini with Retina Display.
We note that even at a 5″ screen size, the viewable area of an iPad Mini at 7.9″ would still be 150% larger than the iPhone 6. Net-net we believe any potential cannibalization would be roughly neutral overall to the model as we believe in some situations users might accelerate their phone update instead of buying an iPad Mini and keep an old phone, while in other cases we might see consumers that purchase an iPhone 6 decide to purchase an iPad Air instead of Mini to increase the utility difference between the devices.
Moreover, analysts believe that users could choose iPad Air 2 instead of a new model of iPad Mini with Retina Display, the idea being to have iDevices with a bigger difference regarding the diagonal of the screens. To be honest, it was to be expected iPhone 6 to reduce sales in a certain category of Apple products, and the iPad Mini is the most logical choice considering that the difference in the diagonal of the screens will no longer be as great. At the time of the launch of the iPhone with 5.5 inch screen there will be even fewer reasons to buy a tablet from Apple, so the future promises to be extremely interesting.
