The latest numbers from Market research firm IDC's Worldwide Quarterly Tablet Tracker show that Apple remains the largest vendor in a declining Tablet market, shipping 10.9 million iPads in the second quarter of 2015. While the iPad Continues to be the best-selling tablet, its worldwide Market Share fell Below 25% as Apple faced increased competition from low-cost rivals Le**vo, Huawei and LG.
Samsung continued to be the second largest Tablet vendor with 7.6 million tablets shipped in the second quarter and 17% Market share, a 12% year-over-year unit decline. Le**vo, Huawei and LG Electronics rounded off the top five, with 2.5 million, 1.6 million and 1.6 million global Tablet shipments in the second quarter respectively. All other Tablet vendors had a combined 45.6% Market share.
iPad sales have declined for six consecutive quarters year-over-year in what has become a stagnated Tablet Market over the past few years, but that trend could be broken in a few months as Apple is expected to release up to three new iPads in time for the holiday shopping season: iPad Air 3, iPad mini 4 and the much-rumored 12.9-inch "iPad Pro" targeted at professional and enterprise users.
