John Lewis has said that it expects the iPad Mini to become the best selling home technology product this Christmas. The company has said that it anticipates selling one tablet every fifteen seconds over the Christmas period, with the Samsung Tab 3 and the Google Nexus also anticipated to generate high sales volumes.
“We have seen big developments in the tablet market this year, with models like the Samsung Galaxy challenging the iPad's top spot and growing its market share," said Adam Brown, a tablet and telecoms buyer for John Lewis.
"There’s been so much development in the tablet market over the past few years that we see this Christmas as the time when many tablet-users will see fit to upgrade their earlier models.”
