The COVID-19 resumption process has already begun in many regions, but worldwide demand for PCs remains strong, and in some cases record high. The main drivers of demand continue to be those who study and work remotely.
In 2021, the PC market will grow by 18.2%
In 2020, PC shipments grew 12.9%. This momentum is expected to continue in 2021, with an increase of 18.2% over 2020. This forecast is given by IDC analysts. They clarify that in quantitative terms, the market will be 357.4 million units. The CAGR from 2020 to 2025 is expected to be 2.5%.
However, the experts on reports and forecasts acknowledge that supply problems remain in the industry, especially with regard to microcircuits. However, as the outlook for demand continues to rise, there is growing pressure on suppliers to expand capacity. IDC believes that, assuming no further supply disruptions, PC shipments and manufacturing capacity will be in balance by mid-2021.
