Phablets Gain Market Share at the Expense of Media Tablets
Based on a greater decline in demand than predicted in the first quarter — and real concerns that vendors will face additional market challenges the rest of the year — International Data Corporation (IDC) has lowered its 2014 worldwide media tablet plus 2-in-1 forecast to 245.4 million units.
That’s down from the previous forecast of 260.9 million units.
