Apple will roll out a larger, 12.9-inch version of its iPad for 2015, with production set to begin in the first quarter of next year, Bloomberg cited people with knowledge of the matter as saying on Tuesday.
Apple has been seeing the sales of its 10-inch and 7.9-inch tablets declining, as people replace iPads less frequently than expected.
Apple has been working with its suppliers for over a year on larger touch-screen devices, Bloomberg cited the sources as saying.
Next month, the company is also expected to introduce larger versions of its 4-inch iPhone.
