PC and Tablet Market Face Further Decline Before a Rebound in 2024, According to IDC.

NEEDHAM, Mass., June 13, 2023 – After a rough start to the year, International Data Corporation (IDC) has lowered its forecast for global PC and Tablet shipments with volumes expected to reach 384.8 million in 2023, down 15.2% compared to last year, according to the Worldwide Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker. Demand has continued to cool as many macroeconomic indicators have worsened or remain unchanged in the past few months, contributing to the lowered outlook. However, IDC expects the market to rebound in 2024 with global volumes reaching 403.1 million during the year and growing to 425 million by the end of 2027.
