The thing that struck me the most when I saw the price increase was how much closer the entry-level iPad was getting to the iPad Air. My guess would be that they plan on killing the middle-tier Air and just have two tablet lines: entry level and pro, just like the laptops.
- ChuckNorris89 4y agoSame thoughts. 3 tier iPad makes no sense to me.
- wronglebowski 4y agoThis has happened before, they don't end up killing the air. Often when the new "base" iPad has a significant improvement in some way it comes in at a higher price tier and the previous generation sticks around. The new base iPad is just in a tax year as I like to think of it. If you really do want that better model but not the air you pay the tax. In 12 months or so I'll drop down to the existing previous generation price and that model will finally be phased out.
