Tablet market to jump 18% in Q2 2024

Press release.

Apple Domination, Chinese Boom

Apple maintains its leadership position with 13.9 million iPads shipped, representing 39% of the market. Samsung follows with a nearly 13% increase in shipments, reaching 6.8 million units, thanks to strong demand for its flagship models and expansion in emerging markets in Asia-Pacific.

Huawei and Lenovo continue to battle for third place, with respective growth of 51% and 16%. Huawei shipped 2.5 million units, mainly driven by demand in China and EMEA, while Lenovo consolidated its global presence with 2.5 million units shipped.

The aggressive strategy of Xiaomi and others

Chinese vendors such as Xiaomi have seen spectacular growth, with Xiaomi seeing its shipments increase by 106% to 2.1 million units. This growth is attributed to aggressive promotional strategies in the domestic market and international expansion targeting regions such as the Middle East and Central and Eastern Europe.

In India, government education tenders have also boosted demand, with future growth prospects supported by guidelines promoting local manufacturing of devices. This momentum could turn India into a key market for tablets in the coming years.
