Can Artificial Intelligence Help Tablets Grow Like PCs And Smartphones In 2024?

Global tablet shipments registered a modest growth of 0.5 percent (year-on-year) in the first quarter this year.

Artificial Intelligence: Can artificial intelligence (AI) drive the slow pace of growth for tablets as it is transforming personal computing and mobile experience for millions of users globally?

Although the global tablet market began to show some signs of recovery in the January-March quarter this year, as per the IDC, the real gains are yet to come after more than two years of decline.

A senior research analyst with IDC Anuroopa Nataraj says that the real gains will come from the next refresh cycle, “followed by growth within commercial segments as more tablets are used in the education sector and the gig economy”.

However, these factors will not help as competition from PCs and smartphones will “contribute to a lacklustre outlook for the tablet market”.

Meanwhile, global tablet shipments registered a modest growth of 0.5 percent (year-on-year) in the first quarter this year, reaching 30.8 million units.

Tech giant Apple saw a lull last year due to “poor economy and the absence of new models” and declined 8.5 percent (YoY).

The company is set to launch new iPads next week. South Korean company Samsung was second with 6.7 million units in the first quarter, a decline of 5.8 percent, according to the report.
