Canalys: The U.S. PC market is expected to continue to grow, and the upcoming retirement of Win10 is an important driving force

News from this site on June 27, according to a report by Canalys, a world-renowned market analysis company, in the first quarter of 2024, the U.S. PC market shipments surged 5% compared with the same period last year, reaching an astonishing level of 14.8 million units. Looking forward, Canalys estimates that by the end of 2024, total U.S. PC shipments will reach another peak, reaching 69 million units. The market trend that continues to flourish will achieve another great success in 2025, when PC shipments are expected to climb to an eye-catching 75 million units.

The report points out that the upcoming end of support for the Windows 10 operating system is one of the key factors driving the growth of the US PC market. The upcoming wave of system upgrades is prompting consumers and businesses to consider purchasing new computers. Canalys analyst Greg Davis said: "There are still a considerable number of users using Windows 10 systems. In the next four months, the momentum of PC upgrades will be even stronger." At the beginning of the year, as manufacturers continued their holiday quarter promotions, the United States PC shipments performed well. Davis analysts believe consumer and business spending has increased as "macroeconomic conditions have remained stable for months" in the United States. This site noted that the report also mentioned that upcoming new artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled PC products in the Apple and Windows ecosystems may further stimulate market shipments, meeting analysts’ expectations. "This timing coincides with the launch of new products on the market with more on-device AI capabilities, and the experience of these new products will appeal to consumers and enterprises in the Windows and Apple ecosystems," Davis said. Data shows , Apple Computers holds a sizable share of the U.S. PC market share (14.2%) and achieved an annual growth rate of 22% in the first quarter of 2024. Lenovo emerged as the winner among Windows PC vendors, with shipments increasing 22%, while shipments from Dell and HP declined, but the two manufacturers still maintained the highest market share in the quarter.
