Notebook shipments declined 27 per cent following the unprecedented success of the Chromebook<\/a> market a year ago and the further weakening of consumer demand, according to Canalys<\/a>.
Desktops continued to perform well, growing 10 per cent as the category has returned to shipment levels comparable to before the pandemic.
Meanwhile, tablet<\/a> shipments faced a relatively modest decline of 4 per cent, reaching 10.9 million shipments.
\"The US desktop and notebook market has now had four consecutive quarters of falling shipments,\" said Brian Lynch<\/a>, research analyst at Canalys.
\"Despite this, overall shipments have remained high when compared with pre-pandemic levels. The market is still quite healthy, despite various headwinds, such as mounting inflation, education market saturation and recent supply issues amid Chinese lockdowns,\" he mentioned.
Dell<\/a> held onto its position as the top desktop and notebook vendor. It has capitalized on the strength of the commercial market.
Ever since the saturation of the education market, HP<\/a> at second place has struggled to replicate its shipment figures without relying on soaring Chromebook demand. HP's shipments fell 44 per cent year on year, a modest improvement on recent quarters, said Canalys.
Lenovo took third place in the market with a 22 per cent decline in shipments.
Apple<\/a> was hit by a decline of 14 per cent in shipments as it struggled with supply constraints due to lockdowns in China.
