Ming-Chi Kuo Talks About iPad Pro Sales and A9X Chip Manufacturer in New Report

A well-known reputable KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has recently released a new report with predictions about the iPad Pro sales in the upcoming holiday quarter. According to the expert, in the fourth quarter of 2015, Apple may sell between 2.4 million and 2.6 million iPad Pro units. As to the sales results in the Q1 2016, they may become a bit more modest. Kuo expects Apple to ship about 2.1 million - 2.3 million iPad Pro units to customers worldwide in the first quarter coming after the holiday period.

The small decline in sales is to be expected as the Q4 is prime holiday shopping season in many countries and Apple is used to seeing inflated numbers during the quarter. Apple will officially report Q4 sales in January, although it’s unclear if it will breakdown iPad Pro numbers specifically.

Apart from predicting the sales results in the upcoming quarter, Kuo has also revealed that Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) is currently a sole A9X chip manufacturer. This thing is very unlikely to change in the nearest future, but in any case, we’ll keep you posted, so stay tuned.
