Mobile phone manufacturers are fiercely engaged in the field of mobile phones, and they have not forgotten categories such as tablets and notebooks. According to Gearbest, we may see more small-sized tablets come out next year. Three manufacturers, including Lenovo Savior, have already launched projects on small tablets.
According to digital bloggers, including the Lenovo Savior, three manufacturers will launch small tablets under 9 inches next year. However, the blogger did not name the other two manufacturers. Some netizens speculated that they were “Huawei and REDMI”, while others thought they were Xiaomi and Apple. However, Apple updated the iPad mini product line some time ago, and there may not be an iteration next year. Taken together, there is a high probability that Xiaomi or REDMI will be one of them.
Interestingly, judging from market trends, the market for small-size tablets seems to be shrinking. A report from market research firm IDC in the second quarter of this year shows that users are increasingly inclined to purchase 12- to 14-inch tablet devices, while the demand for small-sized tablets continues to decline. In this regard, some media bluntly stated that folding screen mobile phones are killing small-size tablets.
However, small-sized tablets still have a unique living space, and they can combine portability and entertainment experience well. In addition, for those who like to play mobile games, a small-sized, high-performance tablet is perfect. This is also the main reason why Lenovo chose to launch the Y700 series of gaming tablets for the Savior. In addition, there has long been news that Xiaomi is preparing a small-sized tablet computer, model REDMI Pad SE, with a screen size that may be 8.7 inches. It is also expected to take the small-screen high-performance route.
