What word Experts About iPad Mini

What word Experts About iPad Mini..?
Some industry analysts and technology experts also expressed their opinions about the presence of the iPad Mini. What do they say?

iPad Mini, Apple's latest tablet PC has arrived. The device is predicted to remain in demand even though the price is assessed too high.

Brian White - analysts Topeka

iPad Mini is the star of the show today, and we believe these products are selling well for Apple, with a 7.9 inch screen, as well as thinner and lighter than the fourth-generation iPad.

We have no doubt the iPad Mini will be the favorite in this year's holiday shopping season, and Apple will sell 5-7 million units through December. Next year, we believe the iPad Mini will be more in demand over and beyond the regular iPad sales in the next few years.

Brian Colello - Morningstar analyst

At first glance, the shape and specifications as the old A5 processor and the use of non-retina display, consistent with our expectations. However, we were a little disappointed with the cheapest price USD 329, because we were worried about price-sensitive consumers who may choose an alternative tablets such as the Amazon Kindle Fire and Google Nexus.

Ben Reitzes - Barclays analyst

Launch iPad Mini in line with expectations, with the features and price accordingly anticipation. We actually hope Mini can slightly lower priced because there is (tablet) that cost as low as USD 99 and some are in the price range of USD199-USD249.

But Apple seems to believe consumers want the iPad and its ecosystem, which is already well underway in the high end segment. We believe Apple could sell 5-10 million iPad Mini to December with another version of the iPad cannibalization rate of 25-20%.

Gene Munster - Piper Jaffray analyst

Although some investors may claim iPad Mini is not a technological innovation, we believe this is a way for Apple to expand the market in which they are dominant.

IPad Mini base price is U.S. $ 329, slightly higher than our expectations, but the higher price does not affect our estimates of consumer demand for the iPad Mini.

GALAXY S III Mini REVIEW

Much criticism leads to specifications that do not fit expectations. But praise is also posted to several reasons.

Samsung Galaxy S III unmasked Mini. Android handset that bears the name of the Galaxy S has drawn praise as well as criticism.

Following the praise and criticism that characterizes the appearance of Galaxy S III Mini which we have quoted from various sources.

= Gizmodo

That's why it's disappointing that the Galaxy S III Mini is not the same with him. The phone is lower on all sides. And that's bad.

Galaxy S III is one of the best phones you can buy. The phone is fast, gorgeous and have a range of capabilities where other phones can only dream of.

Galaxy S III Mini is not supposed to be like this. No one to impress us. Do we put the limit too high? Maybe so. However, if for example Prada announced a smaller bag, you do not expect a lower quality.

Though this phone is the name of the most respected clan Android next Nexus. It comes from a company that has consistently had the resources to fight Apple.

= Wired

S III has two variants, the international version of the Samsung Exynos quad-core processors and the U.S. version with a 1.5 GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU. Both are very fast and offers the best performance. S III Mini be downgraded a 1GHz dual core processor.

Although the Galaxy S III Mini use the same name as the magnitude brother, the Galaxy S III, has the same external design and TouchWiz UI running on the operating system Android Jelly Bean, a disappointing second phone has little in common in them.

S III Mini comes like a wily trickster who failed to match the brand name that has excellence Galaxy S, Samsung built painstakingly.

Even the name of the Mini feels like a mistake. Yes, the S III Mini is smaller than S III standard, but 4 inch phone is not a tiny device.

= Engadget

Our brief time with the phone button reveals all the same as in the Galaxy S III, with the same shape as well.

Samsung reveals Galaxy S III Mini, a lower version of the bigger brother in terms of specs and screen size.

Still need to wait if spec S III Mini brand will weaken the Galaxy S, but we found the phone does not fill the hands like his brother, and a convenient form original phone feels better in miniature.

Marketing Samsung Germany said the research firm found that users want a phone with the same design as the Galaxy S III 4.8 inch, but with a smaller form factor. Samsung claims they did not want the most powerful phones.

= Cnet

Although Samsung expects the new device to help them better compete with Apple, but it seems not much change the map in the U.S. market without 4G LTE capabilities. And the chip in the Mini is dual core. And the camera is only 5 megapixels.

Samsung Galaxy S III Mini is not powerful like flaghsip phones, but Samsung says the device could be the optimal choice for consumers looking for a smartphone that is more practical.

This phone can also be a strong rival against older model iPhone, where Apple still sold through carriers at discount prices.

Where the Galaxy S III Mini can shine is in emerging markets, a key area of ​​growth of smartphones. And also can be a powerful device for prepaid carriers.
