Top 5 notebook manufacturers reduce shipments

Research unit Digitimes Research has just released the latest statistics, showing that the top five notebook manufacturers in the world, including HP, Acer, Dell, Lenovo and Toshiba, have been reduced to more than 20% during the month. From the past.

Meanwhile, the top three ODM manufacturers also experienced a 14% drop in shipments, as brand partners began preparing for next-generation models, and inventory was too much from March.

Among those companies, HP, Acer and Lenovo witnessed a decline in shipments more than their peers in April, all with a 20% drop .

This fact may result in a 15% decline in total notebook shipments worldwide in the second quarter compared to the same period last year, but still 3% higher than the first quarter.

For Lenovo's plan to acquire IBM's server business, even though the two companies still disagree on prices, Digitimes Research still believes that China's largest computer maker will continue to negotiate with IBM to find a voice. In general, both parties cannot find better partners for this deal now.
