Declines continued for the traditional PC market as global shipments totaled 74,3-million units during the third quarter of 2022 , according to preliminary results from the International Data Corporation Worldwide Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker.
Cooling demand and uneven supply have contributed to a year-over-year contraction of 15%. However, shipment volumes remain well above pre-pandemic levels when PC volumes were largely driven by commercial refreshes due to the looming end of support for Windows 7. “Consumer demand has remained muted though promotional activity from the likes of Apple and other players has helped soften the fall and reduce channel inventory by a couple weeks across the board,” says Jitesh Ubrani, research manager for IDC’s Mobility and Consumer Device Trackers.
“In addition to shipment volumes, we’ll be keeping a close eye on how average selling prices trend this quarter,” adds Linn Huang, research vice-president, Devices & Displays at IDC. “Shortages over the last several years have aggressively driven product mix shifts towards the premium end. This, coupled with cost increases of components and logistics, drove ASPs up five quarters in a row to $910 in 1Q22, the highest since 2004.
