Rise of the Tablet in the Fall of the PC

SHENZHEN, China, July 22, 2011 -- As recent data suggests, the tablet PC market is growing at a rapid pace. The emergence of tablet PCs like the iPad, Xoom and the Galaxy are beginning to slow the growth of the PC market globally. This decline comes on the back of a 6.1% fall in the US market during the first quarter of this year the decline has also led to a 1.1% fall in global PC shipments.

Due to this accelerating trend and given the consumer enthusiasm for tablet PCs, retailers are becoming very conscious regarding their inventory levels of PCs and netbooks. Instead they are shifting their focus towards the tablet. Some PC wholesalers have had to lower their inventory through deep discounts, while others are dropping PC models and reducing their product lines available retailers.

With the introduction of the iPad and now the iPad2 along with the slew of Android tablets, pe ople are beginning to move away from netbooks as their closest electronic companion. And it’s no wonder why the popularity of the tablet PC market is growing. Tablet PC is an eReader, a video player, a photo album, game console and a productivity center. Compared to netbooks and notebooks the tablet PC is much faster, thinner and lighter.

In the second quarter of this year, Apple grabbed 61 percent of the global tablet business, shipping nearly 10 million iPads. Comparatively though, that number was down from the 94 percent share the company enjoyed only a year ago, but Overall, global tablet shipments jumped to 15.1 million in the second quarter, a gain of 331 percent from the 3.5 million shipped a year agoLooking forward at the industry trend there is still a large opportunity for electronics retailers to introduce low priced tablet PCs to a market starving for a quality tablet at a reasonable price.
