Fast Technology reported on May 6 that data released today by market research agency Canalys showed that in the first quarter of 2024, global tablet shipments increased slightly by 1% to 33.7 million units.
Thanks to the recovery of consumer spending and the stable improvement of the global economy, this is also the first time that the global tablet market has grown after four consecutive quarters of decline.
Among them, Apple's shipments fell by 13.9% in the first quarter to 12 million units, but it still ranked first, accounting for 36% of the market share.
Samsung, on the other hand, increased slightly by 1.2% to rank second with shipments of 6.8 million units and a market share of 20.2%.
Huawei's shipments soared by 70% to 2.7 million units, with a market share of 8.1%, which is also the second consecutive quarter that Huawei ranks third.
Lenovo and Amazon ranked fourth and fifth, respectively, with market shares of 6.3% and 6.1%, respectively, and both shipped more than 2 million units.
"Apple's promise to use OLED screens on the iPad Pro marks a significant shift in the display technology preferences of leading manufacturers in tablets," said Himani Mukka, research manager at Canalys. In addition, 2024 is set to see new breakthroughs in the form and functionality of tablets, with manufacturers looking at foldable designs and 3D images that can be viewed without glasses. ”
