Laptop Sales Hit a Wall
Laptop sales have been declining in recent years due to the shift towards mobile devices and the increasing popularity of cloud computing. The global laptop market is expected to continue its downward trend, with some analysts predicting a decline of up to 20% in 2024. This decline is attributed to various factors, including the rise of affordable smartphones and tablets.
- The decline of laptops as a primary device for productivity and entertainment may signal a significant shift in consumer behavior, with implications for the electronics industry as a whole.
- As more tasks become cloud-based, will the traditional laptop be replaced by a new type of portable computing device that combines the best features of both?
