Tablets will rule 2014, analysts say, but vendors will battle |
November 30, 2013
Tablets will out ship almost all other PC form factors combined next year, forming nearly 50 percent of the total market, according to a report from analysts at Canalys.
The worldwide client PC market grew 18 percent in the third quarter of this year, despite desktop and notebook shipments continuing to decline.
However, tablet shipment accounted for 40 percent of PC shipments, less than half a million units behind global notebook shipments.
Canalys predicts this trend to continue and has forecast 285 million units to ship in 2014, growing to 396 million units in 2017.
