PC market grows 15% in 2021

According to the latest report from Canalys, PC shipments for the year 2021 increased by 15% compared to 2020.

PC shipments during the year grew globally, reaching 341 million units sold. This is an increase in a market where experts were expecting a drop in sales due to the ongoing global chip shortage.

“2021 was a watershed year in the history of the PC market, with the PC’s place at the center of work, learning and leisure truly cemented,” said Ishan Dutt, Senior Analyst at Canalys. “For the market to post double-digit growth over an impressive 2020, despite the constant cloud of supply constraints, speaks volumes about how strong PC demand has been over the last 12 months.
