China’s tablet market shipped 7.96 million units in the second quarter of 2026, down 4.4% from a year earlier. Commercial tablet shipments rose 67.1%, while consumer shipments fell 9.8%.

Huawei ranked first in shipments, followed by Apple and Lenovo. Xiaomi and Honor ranked fourth and fifth, respectively. The commercial market’s growth was partly driven by early procurement ahead of expected price increases, while higher costs and weaker consumer demand continued to weigh on the consumer segment. [IDC]
