Written By Unknown on Kamis, 12 September 2013 | 21.43

NEW DELHI: The shipment of tablets will overtake those of PCs in annually by 2015, according to a new report by market research firm International Data Corporation (IDC). Though the shipments of PCs are still expected to be greater than tablet shipments for the full year, IDC forecasts the tablet shipments will surpass total PC shipments on an annual basis by the end of 2015.

The report further states that the worldwide smart connected device space will continue to surge, with overall shipments surpassing 2 billion units by the end of 2015 with a market value of $735.1 billion. As per the IDC report, the worldwide smart connected device market --- comprising PCs, tablets and smartphones --- is forecasted to grow 27.8% year-on-year in 2013, slightly lower than the 30.3% growth in 2012.

The growth will be driven by tablet and smartphone shipments. The PC sales outlook has been lowered by 10% for 2013. Smartphones will continue to ship in high volumes, surpassing 1.4 billion units in 2015 and accounting for 69% of all smart connected device shipments worldwide.

In terms of device mix, total PC shipments accounted for 28.7% of the smart connected device market in 2012 while tablets accounted for 11.8% and smartphones for 59.5%. By 2017, total PCs are expected to drop to 13%, while tablets and smartphones will contribute 16.5% and 70.5% respectively to the overall market. The shift in demand from the more expensive PC category to more reasonably priced smartphones and tablets will drive the average selling price ( ASP) for the collective market from $462 in 2012 to $323 in 2017.

In terms of shipment value, the worldwide smart connected devices market will again exhibit double-digit year-on-year growth of 10.6% in 2013, but this growth will gradually slow to just 3.1% in 2017. Worldwide smart connected device value is expected to be $622.4 billion in 2013, of which $423.1 billion will come from the sub-$350 smartphone and sub-$350 tablet segments collectively.
