iPad Vs Nexus 7: Apple iPad Loses out to Nexus 7 in Japan

With this in mind, things don’t look bad for Apple all around. The article notes that there is another possibility for the shift in power:

“The survey did note, however, that there was a shortage of the iPad Mini at stores and that this may have contributed to Apple’s market share decline. But the gist of Nikkei’s analysis is that the Nexus 7’s price is a bigger factor.”

While price was definitely a determining factor, things may have been different if Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) was able to keep the iPad Mini on store shelves.

Tablet sales are on the rise in Japan, and Apple is hoping to regain its footing in 2013.

What do you think about this survey? Does it signify big trouble for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) in Japan?
