Lenovo retains lead slot in PC shipments in Q3

Lenovo has retained its lead position in global shipment of PCs in the third quarter of 2019-20, wresting about a quarter of the market share and registering a growth of 5.8 per cent.

The total shipment globally is put at 68 million units in the quarter as against 67 million units in the same quarter previous year, showing a growth of 1.1 per cent, research and advisory company Garnter said in its preliminary estimates.

However, the US witnessed a marginal decline of 0.3 per cent in total shipments and registered shipments of 14.8 million units in the quarter. Dragged by poor demand in China, PC shipments in Asia-Pacific (excluding Japan) also declined by 5.3 per cent over the same quarter last year.
