New iPad vs Windows 8 Tablet
New	
  iPad,	
  third	
  genera4on	
  of	
  iPad	
  was	
  launched	
  by	
  Apple	
   on	
  7	
   March	
  2012.	
  No	
  maCer	
  
what	
  fanboys	
  or	
  haters	
  will	
  say,	
   one	
  thing	
  is	
  for	
  sure,	
   Apple	
  is	
  going	
  to	
  sell	
  millions	
  of	
  
these	
   new	
   iPads,	
   pre-­‐orders	
   have	
   been	
   sold	
   out	
   already.	
   Customer	
   response	
   to	
  new	
  
iPad	
  has	
  been,	
  what	
  is	
  being	
  called	
  as	
  “off-­‐charts”.

Apple	
  shipped	
  out	
  15.4	
  million	
  iPads	
  in	
  the	
  last	
  quarter	
  of	
  2012.	
  Amazon.com	
  shipped	
  
over	
  4.7	
   million	
   Kindle	
  Fire	
  devices,	
   which	
   puts	
  it	
  at	
  second	
   behind	
   Apple	
  in	
   terms	
   of	
  
most	
   tablet	
  PCs	
  shipped.	
  But	
  Kindle	
  Fire	
   is	
   not	
  compe4ng	
  with	
  iPad,	
   even	
  revised	
  price	
  
of	
  iPad	
  2	
  at	
  $399	
  is	
   way	
  higher	
  than	
  Kindle	
  Fire.	
  Amazon	
   is	
  only	
  able	
   to	
  sell	
  these	
  many	
  
tablets	
  because	
  they	
  are	
   selling	
  it	
   rock-­‐boCom	
  cheap,	
  even	
  lower	
  than	
  cost	
  they	
  incur.	
  
Amazon	
   seem	
   to	
   care	
   more	
   about	
   selling	
   that	
   content	
   than	
   they	
   do	
  about	
   turning	
   a	
  
profit	
  on	
  tablets	
  themselves.

New iPad vs Windows 8 Tablet
Android	
  Tablets	
  have	
  not	
   been	
   able	
  to	
  catch	
  up	
  to	
  iPads	
  popularity	
  in	
  past,	
  and	
  probably	
  
they	
  won’t	
  be	
   able	
   to	
  do	
   so	
  in	
  near	
  future	
  atleast.	
   That	
  makes	
  us	
   wonder	
  if	
  there	
   is	
   any	
  
tablet	
   with	
   a	
   real	
   poten4al	
   to	
  compete	
   with	
   iPad.	
   Well	
   seems	
   like	
   there	
   can	
   be	
   one,	
  
Windows	
  8	
   tablet,	
  when	
  it	
   launches	
  later	
  this	
  year.	
  Here	
   are	
   few	
  points	
  which	
  makes	
   it	
  
beCer	
  compe4tor	
  than	
  any	
  of	
  the	
  earlier	
  launched	
  tablets.




                                                                                                                                             ©

We are Talking Windows
Windows	
  8	
  will	
  be	
  everywhere.	
  Windows	
  s4ll	
  holds	
  a 	
  major	
   market	
  share	
  in	
  PC	
  segment,	
  
which	
  means	
  that	
   it	
  will	
  be	
  shipped	
  on	
  million	
  of	
  devices	
   by	
   many	
  manufacturers.	
  Apple	
  
has	
   been	
   trying	
   to	
   reduce	
   the	
   gap	
   between	
   Desktop	
   and	
   Tablet	
   compu4ng	
   with	
   Mac	
  
Lion,	
  Windows	
  8	
  will	
  have	
  that	
  advantage	
  from	
   day	
  1	
  of	
  its	
  launch.	
   Even	
  if	
   Windows	
   8	
  
fails	
  on	
  expecta4ons,	
  like	
  Vista,	
  it	
  will	
  have	
  a	
  fair	
  chance	
  at	
  success.

ARM Based Processor and more
Since	
  Windows	
  8	
  Tablets	
  will	
  be	
   based	
  on	
  ARM	
  processor,	
  it	
   can	
  compete	
   with	
  iPad	
   on	
  
some	
   highly	
   promoted	
   features	
   like	
   thinness,	
   long	
   baCery	
   life	
   and	
   general	
   elegance.	
  
Windows	
   8	
  will	
   also	
  run	
   on	
   great	
   variety	
   of	
  desktop	
   and	
   portable	
   PCs	
   as	
   well	
   as	
   ones	
  
that	
  split	
  the	
  difference	
  between	
  PC	
  and	
  tablet.	
  Because	
  of	
  this	
  versa4lity	
  of	
  Windows	
  8,	
  
it	
  is	
  seen	
  as	
  a	
  tough	
  compe4tor	
  to	
  iPads.

Solid Selection of Application
Microsob	
  knows	
  as	
   much	
  as	
  any	
  company	
  on	
  the	
  planet	
  about	
  catering	
  to	
   the	
  interests	
  
of	
   third-­‐party	
   developers.	
   Most	
   of	
   the	
   developers	
   who	
   currently	
   write	
   old	
   style	
  
Windows	
   apps	
  are	
  presumably	
   at	
  least	
   considering	
   wri4ng	
   new-­‐style	
  Metro	
  ones.	
  This	
  
means	
   that	
   Windows	
   8	
   will	
   boast	
   of	
   great	
   number	
   of	
   available	
   applica4ons,	
   and	
   we	
  
know	
   that	
   availability	
   of	
  high	
   quality	
   apps	
   can	
   very	
   well	
   be	
  a	
  big	
   selling	
   point	
   for	
   any	
  
device.

New iPad vs Windows 8 Tablet: Real Competition in Tablet Space

  • 1. 1 New  iPad  vs  Windows  8  Tablet:   Real  Compe88on  in  Tablet  Space ©  TechAhead
  • 2. New iPad vs Windows 8 Tablet New  iPad,  third  genera4on  of  iPad  was  launched  by  Apple   on  7   March  2012.  No  maCer   what  fanboys  or  haters  will  say,   one  thing  is  for  sure,   Apple  is  going  to  sell  millions  of   these   new   iPads,   pre-­‐orders   have   been   sold   out   already.   Customer   response   to  new   iPad  has  been,  what  is  being  called  as  “off-­‐charts”. Apple  shipped  out  15.4  million  iPads  in  the  last  quarter  of  2012.  Amazon.com  shipped   over  4.7   million   Kindle  Fire  devices,   which   puts  it  at  second   behind   Apple  in   terms   of   most   tablet  PCs  shipped.  But  Kindle  Fire   is   not  compe4ng  with  iPad,   even  revised  price   of  iPad  2  at  $399  is   way  higher  than  Kindle  Fire.  Amazon   is  only  able   to  sell  these  many   tablets  because  they  are   selling  it   rock-­‐boCom  cheap,  even  lower  than  cost  they  incur.   Amazon   seem   to   care   more   about   selling   that   content   than   they   do  about   turning   a   profit  on  tablets  themselves. ©  TechAhead
  • 3. New iPad vs Windows 8 Tablet Android  Tablets  have  not   been   able  to  catch  up  to  iPads  popularity  in  past,  and  probably   they  won’t  be   able   to  do   so  in  near  future  atleast.   That  makes  us   wonder  if  there   is   any   tablet   with   a   real   poten4al   to  compete   with   iPad.   Well   seems   like   there   can   be   one,   Windows  8   tablet,  when  it   launches  later  this  year.  Here   are   few  points  which  makes   it   beCer  compe4tor  than  any  of  the  earlier  launched  tablets. ©  TechAhead
  • 4. We are Talking Windows Windows  8  will  be  everywhere.  Windows  s4ll  holds  a  major   market  share  in  PC  segment,   which  means  that   it  will  be  shipped  on  million  of  devices   by   many  manufacturers.  Apple   has   been   trying   to   reduce   the   gap   between   Desktop   and   Tablet   compu4ng   with   Mac   Lion,  Windows  8  will  have  that  advantage  from   day  1  of  its  launch.   Even  if   Windows   8   fails  on  expecta4ons,  like  Vista,  it  will  have  a  fair  chance  at  success. ©  TechAhead
  • 5. ARM Based Processor and more Since  Windows  8  Tablets  will  be   based  on  ARM  processor,  it   can  compete   with  iPad   on   some   highly   promoted   features   like   thinness,   long   baCery   life   and   general   elegance.   Windows   8  will   also  run   on   great   variety   of  desktop   and   portable   PCs   as   well   as   ones   that  split  the  difference  between  PC  and  tablet.  Because  of  this  versa4lity  of  Windows  8,   it  is  seen  as  a  tough  compe4tor  to  iPads. ©  TechAhead
  • 6. Solid Selection of Application Microsob  knows  as   much  as  any  company  on  the  planet  about  catering  to   the  interests   of   third-­‐party   developers.   Most   of   the   developers   who   currently   write   old   style   Windows   apps  are  presumably   at  least   considering   wri4ng   new-­‐style  Metro  ones.  This   means   that   Windows   8   will   boast   of   great   number   of   available   applica4ons,   and   we   know   that   availability   of  high   quality   apps   can   very   well   be  a  big   selling   point   for   any   device. ©  TechAhead
