Kgi 3 New Ipads To Debut Next Quarter Will Slow Decline In Sales 10 10 5 Inch Model Wildcard

In a new report out this morning from noted analyst Ming-Chi Quo at KGI Securities, we find the size of the new iPad form factor, expected in Q2 still in flux indicating that Apple may still be deciding between different sizes.

Perhaps most interesting for AAPL stockholders is the psychological impact of iPad sales leveling off and greater ASP…

Kuo still expects numbers to be down slightly year over year but the higher ASP to make up for that in revenues.

Samsung also appears to be a winner in this latest round of iPad

MacOtakara has predicted similar sized iPads in the same time period but their estimates are the screen can grow to be as big as 10.9-inches.  These larger screens will likely be in the same or similar sized enclosures as the current 9.7-inch iPads.  Meanwhile the Samsung processor/display 9.7-inch iPads will likely be low-end legacy models.
