In the second quarter of this year Apple has sold almost 5 million MacBooks. I personally find it outrageous, if we take into account the prices of Apple laptops.
It is clear that the happy pandemic of COVID-19 It has helped a lot to increase the sales of laptops of any brand. The forced teleworking in which many employees have been forced to do has meant that many companies, individuals and students have had to buy a computer or renovate an existing one to be able to work or study from home. And all this has been noticed in sales.
According to the research team Strategy Analytics, in the second quarter of this year the sales of MacBooks have increased by 21% Compared to the same quarter of 2019. Almost nothing.
Apple sold 4,6 million laptops in the 2020 second quarter, up from 3,8 million in the second quarter of 2019. The company now has 8,5% of the global laptop market.
Keep in mind that in these figures iPads not included that Apple sells, otherwise it would be in the first place without a doubt. That said, Lenovo has 25% of the global laptop market, HP has 24,8%, Dell 15,6% and Acer 6,7%.
Individual consumers, businesses, students and schools buy a large number of laptops every year, which generated a growth of the 27% year after year in laptop sales, according to Strategy Analytics in the report presented.
Said report ends by reflecting on the fact that it is not at all clear whether the demand for these devices that exists every year due to the return to school and vacation campaign has been advanced this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic or if this is the beginning of a new era of growth for laptops.
