  • Growing acceptance of BYOD and COPE strategies

Technavio has released a new market research report on the global mobile computer market, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 4% between 2016 and 2020. Increase in internet usage and the growing utilization of devices like tablets, smartphones, laptops, and notebooks is propelling the growth of mobile computers. APAC occupies 62% of the mobile computer market, thanks to increased adoption of smartphones in the region.

The new industry research report from Technavio discusses in detail the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.

“The demand for mobile computers from enterprises has increased considerably. Several small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) have been adopting mobile computing devices due to factors like increased mobile workforce, enhanced functionalities of mobile devices, and declining prices of the devices. The ability of these devices to help employees in accessing information on a real-time basis will lead to its augmented adoption during the forecast period,” says Sunil Singh, Lead Analyst, Hardware & Semiconductor, Technavio Research.

Bring your own device (BYOD) and corporate owned, personally enabled (COPE) strategies are encouraging employees to use mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops at the workplace. This has created the demand for the integration of mobile computers such as tablets and laptops in organizations. Companies such as MobileIron are providing mobile device management tools that reduce the risk of losing and leaking the private information of companies with BYOD policies.

The key players in the global mobile computer market include Samsung, Apple, HP, Dell, Xiaomi, and Lenovo. In this market study, analysts have estimated that vendors like Apple, Samsung, Lenovo, HP, and Dell will dominate the global market for mobile computers during the predicted period. The vendors in this market compete on the basis of product pricing and after sales service. Recent technological advances and growing investments in the R&D of new cost effective products will result in the strong growth of this market during the forecast period.
