Q1 iPad shipments double in China after tough 2022
A new analyst report shows Apple doubled shipments of the iPad in China for the first quarter of 2023 when compared to the same time period in 2022.
Apple’s iPad is more expensive than many competing Android tablets, and supply chain issues going into 2022 led to smaller shipments. However, it seems Apple was able to turn those numbers around by the start of 2023, according to new analyst data.
A report from Canalys seen by AppleInsider shows that shipments of the iPad more than doubled YoY in China for Q1 2023. The tablet market was particularly strong for the quarter, with 38% growth in total.
“The penetration of tablets in the region is increasing with an array of readily available diverse and affordable devices,” said Emma Xu, an analyst at Canalys. “Vendors are now innovating to bring productivity-focused improvements, including the use of accessories like keyboards, styluses, and applications to support work and study. This has bolstered the importance of tablets as a key pillar within wider device ecosystem strategies and helps ensure that vendors can tap into future demand stemming from consumers, businesses and the education sector.”
Apple isn’t mentioned in the PC market portion of the report. Desktop, notebook, and workstation shipments fell 24%.
