There are rumors that the much-awaited iPad Air 3 release may not happen in 2015.
Taiwanese website DigiTimes claims that Apple is not focusing on the iPad Air 3 right now. Instead it is concentrating on the Apple iPad Mini 4, which is being modeled on iPad Air 2. The report further claims that the company's supply chain is preparing components for Apple iPad Mini 4, which is expected to have a display size of 7.4 inches and support split-view multitasking process as well.
There is no word on when the jumbo iPad Pro release will happen. It is supposed to be a worthy competitor to the upcoming Microsoft Surface Pro 4, which is expected to launch on Oct. 4.
According to MacRumors, Apple is planning to unveil its new iPhones and iPad Mini 4 in September in anticipation of the holiday shopping season.
Apple is currently facing the sixth straight year of declining iPad sales. Thus the company could be focused on launching only one iPad in September in order to avoid division of sales on launching multiple iPad's together.
Also, analysts are predicting negative sale growth for the upcoming iPhone 6S and iPhone 7. They say that Apple is undergoing a slump phase and it is not going to keep up to the expectations of the users with the new upcoming devices.
Hence, Apple iPhone 7 and iPhone 6S are not expected to see good sales and may instead be a failure in the market.
