According to experts, the industry-wide growth is driven by the product refresh cycle of users. At the same time, demand from theeducation customer group is also constantly increasing.

“Chinese government consumer subsidies, combined with various Lunar New Year promotions, fueled double-digit growth in the tablet industry in the first quarter.

“Apple continues to maintain its leadership in the industry, but rivals such as Huawei and Xiaomi are also leveraging their diverse tablet portfolio and comprehensive IoT ecosystem to attract users,” said Himani Mukka, research director at Canalys .

Looking at the first quarter, Apple continued to dominate the global tablet market with a 14% year-over-year growth. The company shipped 13.7 million devices, equivalent to 35.5% of the tablet market share.
