Lenovo Dominates as Global PC Shipments Surge in Q2 2025
The global PC market continued its upward trajectory in the second quarter of 2025, fueled by vendors strategically preparing for potential tariff implementations. A new report from the International Data Corporation (IDC) reveals that worldwide PC shipments reached 64.9 million units, marking a 3.1% increase compared to the same period last year. This growth signifies the third consecutive quarter of expansion in the PC sector, driven by proactive inventory management and robust demand across various regions.
Strategic Moves Drive PC Market Resilience
Despite ongoing economic uncertainties and geopolitical challenges, the PC market has demonstrated remarkable resilience. According to the IDC Worldwide Quarterly Personal Computing Device Tracker, released on July 21, 2025, vendors are actively accelerating shipments to mitigate potential tariff increases, particularly in the United States, where trade policies could significantly impact costs. Lenovo emerged as the market leader, capturing a substantial 22.7% market share during this period. “Vendors are getting ahead of potential disruptions,” noted Ryan Reith, group vice president at IDC’s Mobility and Consumer Device Trackers, highlighting the proactive measures taken by companies to navigate the evolving trade landscape.
In conclusion, the global PC market’s continued growth in Q2 2025 underscores the industry’s adaptability in the face of economic and political headwinds. Strategic inventory stocking and a proactive approach to potential tariff implementations have enabled vendors to maintain momentum and meet ongoing demand. While economic uncertainties persist, the PC market’s resilience suggests a positive outlook for the remainder of the year.
