But Apple is not going to sit around and lose it crown, the new iPad Mini 2 is expected to have a retina display and the new iPad 5 is expected to take its design cues from the hugely popular iPad Mini series. But the biggest advantage that Apple has over its competition is its App store. The Apple App Store has over 300 000 apps focused on the iPad, whereas most Android tablet users are forced to make do with applications designed for smartphones on their Android tablets. So unless Android has a whole load more of tablet focused apps, Apple will continue to have the advantage.
