Lenovo passes Apple for top spot in global computer market
2015-08-07 10:29:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Lenovo took the top spot from Apple in the PC market (desktops, notebooks and tablets) in the second quarter, according to figures from Canalys. Apple had held the lead since Q3 2014, but slowing sales of the iPad hurt its market share in the quarter. iPads represented 70 percent of Apple's shipments in the period. Lenovo shipped just under 16.0 million PCs, some 240,000 more than Apple, giving it a 15 percent market share. The company was supported by its leading position in its home market China. The worldwide PC market fell 12 percent annually to 109.2 million units, with double-digit percentage declines affecting desktop, notebook and tablet shipments, the market researcher said. Apple, HP and Dell followed Lenovo, with marginal increases in their shares of the declining market. Samsung completed the top five, but experienced a slight dip in share as a result of slowing tablet sales and the scaling back of its participation in the notebook market.
