Apple Suspends Development of 12.9-Inch iPad Pro

Apple has reportedly faced some serious difficulties that prevent the company from the development of its long-anticipated 12.9-inch tablet called iPad Pro. That is why Apple has put this project on hold, DigiTimes reporters write.

At the same time, Apple’s main rivals - Google and Samsung - continue their work on new tablets. Google has started working on a new 8.9-inch device that is expected to be launched this year and Samsung has already released its enormous Galaxy Note Pro and Galaxy Tab Pro with 12.2-inch displays.

However, most of the large-size tablet projects face difficulties because of lack of support from related platform developers and ecosystems. Apple has also been said to shelved its large-size tablet project.

I honestly don’t know if the company from Cupertino will release its “large” iPad this year or not. All I know is that it is said to be developed for enterprise and educational markets.
