Biggest decline in global sales of personal computers in two decades
Global personal computer (PC) sales have declined the most in the last two decades in the September quarter. Shipments of desktops and laptops declined by about 19.5 percent year-on-year to about 68 million units. This is the fourth consecutive quarter of decline in PC shipments. The report of market research firm Gartner states that due to people returning to office and reopening of schools, the demand for PC has reduced in both consumer and enterprise segments. “Excessive inventory has become a major problem due to weak demand for PCs in both consumer and enterprise segments as supply chain disruptions ease,” said Gartner analyst Mikako Kitagawa. Many consumers had purchased new personal computers in the last two years and hence demand in this segment is weak. Due to tensions between some countries and weak economic conditions, companies have reduced their spending on IT and PCs are not their priority. Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) witnessed the biggest decline of 26.4 percent in the September quarter. This is the third consecutive quarter of decline in sales in this region. Weak economic conditions in Europe and the war between Ukraine and Russia are impacting demand. Gartner says that many PC vendors in Russia closed their businesses in the first two quarters of this year. This has had a negative impact on total shipments and is visible in comparison on a year-on-year basis. PC sales in Asia Pacific have declined by 16.6 percent on a year-on-year basis. The main reason for this is the lockdown due to the epidemic in many cities of China. This has slowed down the business of companies and reduced the demand for personal computers in consumer, government and enterprise segments. Dell ranked first in the PC market in terms of total PC shipments. Its market share was 26.8 percent. It was followed by HP (about 23.2 percent), Apple (16 percent) and Lenovo (about 15.8 percent). Dell’s laptop shipments have declined in all regions except Japan. However, its desktop shipments have increased on a year-on-year basis in all regions except Asia Pacific. -

The launch of new PCs and laptops may be affected by the spread of Corona in China.
Due to the rapid spread of Corona again in China during the last few weeks, there may be a labor shortage in many industries. This is also likely to affect the launch of new PCs and laptops. In China, the government had given some relaxation in the restrictions related to Corona. Since then the number of people infected with this virus is increasing. The problems of suppliers of companies manufacturing personal computers and laptops in China have also increased due to Corona. Many workers of some of these firms have been infected with the virus and due to this production has had to be temporarily stopped. This will cause delays in shipments, which will impact the availability of products like new laptops. Contract manufacturing firms like Compal, Inventec, Quanta and Wistron have not yet faced shortages of components or workers. Due to the inventory already available with them and the demand not being expected to be very high in the first quarter, they have not asked their suppliers to increase production. However, big companies manufacturing personal computers may face difficulties and this is likely to impact the supply of PCs. The situation in China is worsening due to increasing Corona cases. A large number of people are getting infected by the new variant of this epidemic called BF.7. The reports coming from China have shocked the whole world. The videos coming from Chinese hospitals are scary. One such video has been shared on social media, in which it can be seen that a doctor became so tired due to the workload that he collapsed on his chair. This video has been shared by ‘The Telegraph’. It can be seen that a doctor is looking at the patients present in the hospital. After this he suddenly falls on his chair and other doctors come to help him. This indicates that China’s hospitals are full of patients and the systems there have completely collapsed. Experts say that 60 percent of China’s population may get infected with Corona in the next 90 days. -

Apple preparing to launch 15.5 inch MacBook Air
Apple, which makes popular smartphones and devices like iPhone, may soon launch 15.5 inch MacBook Air. The company has started production of panels for this. This indicates that this device will be launched in April. Earlier, there was speculation that the company would launch 15 inch MacBook Air. According to the report of DSCC analyst Ross Young, the company has started the production of panels for the new MacBook Air. It can be launched in April. Information about this can be given soon by the company. This will be the largest screen size for the MacBook Air. It can be launched with a 13-inch model. Apple launched a version of the MacBook Air last year. It had Apple’s M2 chipset and its starting price was $1,199. Information about the specifications of the company’s upcoming laptop has not been received. Apple has also started work on the next generation chipset M3. It is being manufactured by Taiwan’s semiconductor company TSMC. It is not known which chipset will be used in the new MacBook Air. Apple’s quarterly revenue has declined for the first time in almost four years. The main reason for this is the decline in sales of the new iPhone series during the holiday season due to the restrictions imposed in China due to Corona. The company’s sales during the December quarter stood at $117 billion, which is about five percent less than the same quarter last year. The company’s profit has also decreased during October-December. Apple’s profit was approximately 30 billion dollars. Apple’s results have increased the fear of slowdown due to expensive interest rates and some other reasons. The last decline in iPhone sales for Apple, the world’s most valued listed company, was during Corona. Along with manufacturing of iPhone in India, the company has also increased exports. The company has exported handsets worth one billion dollars from the country in December. In India, iPhones are assembled in the factories of Apple’s contract manufacturers Foxconn and Wistron.
