Q3 notebook shipments to fall sharply

Stefan Mileschin · 18th July 2015, 10:27

Taiwan accounts for 81.6 percent of the notebooks that ship worldwide and it appears that the downward trend of sales will continue throughout this year.

The prediction comes in the wake of results from CPU manufacturers Intel and AMD this week, and certainly means that other component suppliers are feeling the squeeze.

Digitimes Research (DR) predicts that over 32 million notebooks will ship during the third calendar quarter – that’s down by 12.2 percent on the same calendar quarter last year.

The third quarter was traditionally a buoyant period for notebook sales, but that pattern seems to have been disrupted.
