It has always been noted that the tablet market is an iPad market, but is this entirely true? Who were the top producers? And how many millions of tablets does each of them sell?
While the tablet market seems a little far away from that of phones (or PCs), it's big enough to be considered. Today we analyze which products are top notch.
You will not believe how many phones have been sold in 2019
Ever wanted to know how many phones were bought? We introduce you to the 2019 statistics and analyze them in relation to previous years.
Android still fits on tablets
In a recent report by the IDC they have collected information on tablet distribution throughout 2019. It is important to remember that shipping does not mean direct sales of tablets, but it does indicate how many tablets have left the factory of each product, for the closest number we can have to direct sales (unless another manufacturer announces it publicly).
These types of reports give us the impression that, even though the tablet market is not an "iPad market." The Apple tablet is priceless, representing more than a third of the market itself. What were the top 5?
1: Apple (iPad): 49.9 million units
A few days ago the iPad was 10, the last major product of the Steve Jobs era and since its launch has emerged year after year as the best tablet for good balance between technical and software features.
The tablet for years has been a great price and, interestingly, in recent generations we have seen how cheap it can be. Yes, the best iPads are more expensive than before, but for anyone looking for an iPad it's always easier.
Why on Android is not and will never be the same as Apple Pro, but neither is it necessary
We're analyzing the state of the new iPad Pro against Android tablets, aren't we? Is there anything like it so far?
2nd: Samsung: 21.7 million tablets
It was to be expected that Samsung is among the leading manufacturers of tablets, as it is the company that best bet on Android as the operating system of tablets. Samsung's tablets are loaded with innovation.
Tablets like the Galaxy Tab S6 are amazing to offer the best screen you can have on a tablet, a PC display thanks to Samsung DeX and not only a hundred pens, but also included as standard.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 update: the best Android tablet
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 is the best tablet with Android but it is much more than that: a laptop, a very good television among others.
Third: Huawei: 14.1 million
The fact that Huawei has positioned itself as the third manufacturer of tablets is something that I remember very honestly. The Chinese company is launching models from time to time, but they are also not as ambitious as Samsung, and not as expensive as Amazon.
Their third place, with 14.1 million units distributed, shows that their choice is more than just right.
4: Amazon: 13 million
Amazon's position as a tablet manufacturer is very curious. It's the first manufacturer that has decided to use Android without Google services, and far from being a problem hasn't stopped it from being one of the best.
The Amazon secret is not too complicated to explain. A product that offers low quality and affordable prices. Amazon's strategy is not to make money on its tablets, but to provide a tool for accessing its agricultural use system.
Amazon Fire HD 8 update for 2018: a tablet you didn't expect to be that great
The 2018 Amazon Fire HD 8 has absolutely no change compared to the previous generation, but as it is cheaper, its beauty is even more pronounced.
Fifth: Lenovo: 8.5 million
Lenovo is one of the most important companies in the PC market, besides being the current owner of Motorola's legend. The tablet market is a great creative genre, and we are sometimes surprised by different devices, being the latest tablet to be Google Home.
Lenovo Smart Display and Smart Tab: tablets with integrated Google Assistant
Lenovo introduced new range-wide Smart devices. Two new tablets that we can use as an assistant and a smart screen.
