5G personal tablet/computer shipments will increase by 25% in 2023

On January 11, at the beginning of 2023, Canalys Research Institute announced the main trends in the personal computer, smart phone and technology industry in 2023. Among them, the shipment of 5G personal computers and tablets will increase by 25%; 60% of smartphone shipments will come from 5G mobile phones; ARM architecture will be used for 15% of notebook computer shipments;

In the third quarter of 2022, the overall shipment of personal computers and tablets with 5G connectivity increased from 2% a year ago to 24%. In the third quarter of 2022, the overall number of personal computers that can be connected to the Internet increased slightly by 4%, and the adoption rate of 5G in personal computers increased significantly. In 2023, with the improvement of 5G infrastructure, manufacturers increasing their product types and operators increasing support, this trend will further accelerate.

PC manufacturers have set foot in this field. At the same time, Intel, MediaTek and Qualcomm have developed a roadmap for the design and marketing of 5G devices. In 2022, major telecom operators also significantly increased the types of 5G products. For example, AT&T and Verizon began to sell 5G laptops and tablets in the United States. In 2023, the continuous adoption of operators will be a key factor in the growth of networked personal computers.

With the emergence of remote and hybrid work, employees will prefer mobile connected devices when updating their devices. Employers also need to find ideal solutions to address the security threats posed by public and insecure Wi-Fi networks. Such a development trend will also bring more business opportunities for 5G personal computers in 2023 and beyond.

5G fell into a dilemma in 2022, but this situation will change in 2023. The overall macroeconomic situation has warmed and the global economy is expected to recover. Operators will be more active than ever in promoting 5G deployment and expanding 5G user base.
