Apple is preparing for the release of the iPad 5

According to the 9to5Mac resource with reference to the Japanese blog Macotakara, Apple is ready to introduce a new generation iPad 5 months after the launch of the iPad 4.

Apple, shortening the cycle of updating its products, is ready to introduce the iPad 5 in March next year. According to Macotakara, the tablet will be smaller than its predecessor: the novelty will be 4 mm shorter, 17 mm narrower and 2 mm thinner. The thickness and weight will be reduced due to the Sharp LCD panel. Externally, the iPad 5 will be in many ways a copy of the iPad mini.

Apple has repeatedly reported that it significantly shortens the time gaps between the releases of its devices. According to rumors, after the release of the iPad 5, the company plans to release the iPhone 5S in June. According to the forecast of Jefferies analyst Peter Misek, the new smartphone will have a more powerful battery, support for NFC technology, an improved camera and will include up to 128 GB of internal memory.
