The launch of flagship models by major brands propelled global smartphone production to a QoQ increase of 7%, reaching approximately 310 million units and matching figures from the same period last year.

Global Notebook Shipments Expected to Grow by 4.9% in 2025, Business Demand Emerges as a Key Driver, Says TrendForce

25 November 2024

TrendForce reports that the global notebook market in 2024 is projected to recover at a moderate pace, hindered by high interest rates and geopolitical uncertainties. Annual shipments are forecast to reach 174 million units, marking a 3.9% YoY increase. Looking ahead to 2025, reduced political uncertainty following the U.S. presidential election and the Federal Reserve’s rate cuts in September 2024 are expected to stimulate capital flow. Combined with the end-of-service for Windows 10 and demand for commercial device upgrades, global notebook shipments are predicted to grow by 4.9% to 183 million units in 2025.

19 November 2024

Global TV brand shipments reached 52.33 million units in 3Q24, reflecting a QoQ increase of 9.6% and a YoY growth of 0.5%. This surge was fueled by China’s end-of-July announcement of subsidies for first- and second-tier energy-efficient household appliances that offered 15%–20% discounts on retail prices through trade-in programs. Local TV brands ramped up production of models meeting subsidy requirements starting in August and helped aggressive promotions during the Mid-Autumn Festival and Golden Week. As a result, Q3 shipments exceeded initial projections by 1%.

Looking at total production for 2024, Apple is currently close to Samsung, the market leader, and could potentially surpass Samsung by the end of the year to become the top smartphone manufacturer by market share for the first time.
