HP kept No. 1 with 14.8 million computers sold, up 12.2% from last year and accounting for 18.1% of the share. Dell sold 10.6 million PCs, accounting for 13%. Accompanied by Acer with 12.6% market share. The following positions include Lenovo, Toshiba and Asus.

Another Gartner study has recently been published. Accordingly, the computer market saw a strong growth of 22.4% in the second quarter of this year. The number of PC sold reached 82.9 million products. HP is currently leading the global computer market but has fallen from 18.8% market share to 17.4%.

Acer continues to hold the No. 2 position, accounting for 13% of the market share. Dell grew by 19% but due to not keeping pace with global growth, market share dropped to 12.4%. Next is Lenovo with 10% and Asus with 5.2%, Toshiba 4.8%.

According to Gartner, the growth of small laptops (netbooks) has dropped markedly but still more than the overall increase of PCs. " Netbooks grew less than 20% compared to last year's 70% ," said Gartner analyst Kitagawa.
