According to recently released figures, Apple released the iPad mini (7.9 inches) in the first three months of this year, which was more than 6 million units. That is far less than the 8.4 million (9.7-inch) iPad. This statistic clearly shows that users are more inclined to buy larger iPads than iPad mini.

The big iPad supply growth trend started in the fourth quarter of last year. Where Apple was able to sell 16.8 million iPads. During the same period, only 9.2 million iPad mini were shipped by Apple. Interestingly, in the first quarter of 2013, it was the iPad mini that had the most sales figures and somehow affected the sales of the older brother.

As the iPad Air gets lighter, users will be less inclined to use the iPad mini

Apple seems to have betrayed the iPad mini and affected its market by launching the iPad air and reducing its weight; Because many users now prefer the larger iPad air screen thanks to its light weight.

Finally, it should be noted that the growing popularity of the iPad makes Samsung the largest supplier of Apple 9.7-inch screens. But of all the iPad family, LG has the largest share of the display.

Which one do you prefer? IPad mini with a smaller screen and of course a lower price or iPad Air with a bigger screen?
