According to analysts, this market will grow steadily in the foreseeable future. More specifically, during the indicated period, the market will increase by $ 41.24 billion. This figure corresponds to average annual growth of 15%.
The experts on reports and forecasts note that the market is highly fragmented, and the degree of fragmentation will increase over the forecast period. They include Acer, Apple, ASUSTeK Computer, Huawei Investment & Holding, Lenovo Group, LG Electronics, Microsoft, Samsung Electronics, Sony, and Xiaomi Group as the main market participants. Recognizing that the global economy’s growing digitalization offers tremendous opportunities for growth, analysts cite growing concerns about data security and privacy as a deterrent. Also, an increase in the supply of counterfeit products was named as a negative factor.
