Worldwide Tablet Forecast Update, 2019–2023
This IDC study provides the five-year forecast update of the tablet market for 2019–2023. Detailed views of product type, segment, operating system (OS), region, screen size, and connectivity type are provided."In 2019 the tablet market is expected to see declines of 2.8% to 142.1 million unit shipments. Despite strong recovery by the detachable category, which has seen 34% growth in the first half of 2019, it is still not enough to offset the continued lackluster performance of the slate category," said Lauren Guenveur, senior research analyst, IDC's Devices. "Apple's new seventh-generation iPad, which now comes with support for its Smart Keyboard, will certainly continue to boost detachable shipments throughout the remainder of the year, and the future of the category looks bright."
