According to research firm Canalys (via Reuters), these additional purchases will hike the number of installed PCs and tablets from 1.64 billion at the end of 2019 to 1.77 billion by the end of next year. Components used to produce tablets such as screens and processors are hard to fine because of the demand. Forecasts for next year would be even higher if not for the shortages of such supplies. According to Ryan Reith, an analyst at researcher IDC, demand for tablets, PCs, and laptops could continue to rise into 2022 as governments in various countries disseminate stimulus money for schools and businesses. The demand for such devices is illustrated by a story repeated by Canalys analyst Ishan Dutt who said that back in April a desperate customer told a vendor that any device with a keyboard would suffice as long as delivery took no longer than one week. Dutt said that such desperation has since subsided but demand for upgrades has continued to put pressure on manufacturers.
Next Spring, Apple will reportedly offer an entry level iPad with Touch ID, an A13 Bionic chipset (used on the iPhone 11 series) with a price of $299. A new iPad Pro model is supposedly on the way and could support high-band 5G with a mmWave Antenna in Package module. The next iPad Pro could feature an OLED display and be powered by a 5nm A14X Bionic. Such a device might make its way to the marketplace by the second half of next year. Apple saw iPad sales rise 11.5% during the last fiscal year. For the fiscal fourth quarter, the year-over-year gain in iPad sales rose by 46%.
