(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
The tablet market in India grew 68 per cent year-on-year in the
first quarter ended March 2022, with Lenovo leading the chart, a
Cybermedia Research report released on Monday said.
According to the report, tablet shipments are likely to register
a healthy 10-12 per cent growth in 2022.
The 4G tablets recorded 74 per cent year-on-year growth during
the reported quarter.
'Driven by the pandemic and the continuous rise and ebb of the
COVID-19 cases, many of the sectors are persisting with hybrid or
remote work. This is continuing to fuel the adoption of tablets for
work, e-learning and content consumption use cases.
'The education and healthcare sector have contributed to the
uptick in the overall tablet market in India,' Cybermedia Research
(CMR) analyst-industry intelligence group Menka Kumari said.
Shipment of tablets with 8 inches display constituted 26 per
cent of the overall shipments in the Indian market while tablets
with 10-inch and above displays contributed to 61 per cent of the
shipments.
'Lenovo maintained the first position in the region, mainly
driven by its commercial business and retail market. Lenovo Tab M8
(HD) (Wi-Fi+4G) 2GB 32GB series garnered 32 per cent market share,
primarily in the value for money (Rs 7,000-25,000) segment. Lenovo
shipments recorded a remarkable 48 per cent year-on-year (YoY)
growth in the first quarter of 2022,' the report said.
Apple and Samsung registered a 22 per cent market share each,
followed by Realme and Lava in the March 2022 quarter.
Kumari said the tablet market in India is going to gain strength
with the increasing availability of 5G-capable tablets, as well as
with new market entrants, such as Xiaomi with its Pad 5.
'With other potential Tablet market entrants, such as OPPO, Vivo
and OnePlus, in the offing, the consumers have more choices than
before in the Android Tablet market. On the enterprise side, the
commercial and government sector will continue to gain strength
owing to the traction in digital economy and e-governance,' she
added.
