Wait, what? Workstation sales set new record in 2022?
PC sales may have slumped during 2022, but a record number of workstations – 7.7 million – were snapped up by buyers, delivering 2.1 percent year-on-year growth.
Which handily explains why Q4 saw year-on-year unit shipment decline of 22.2 percent, thanks to economic concerns and backlogs finally being filled. 2021 was a bumper year for mobile workstations thanks to certain events that made working from home fashionable, while 2022's return to the joys of office life brought an end to the mobile surge in favor of desktop workstations. But although companies invested heavily in desktops in 2022, IDC reckons mobiles will continue to thrive – at least in markets friendly to hybrid work arrangements.
"The vendor's measured approach to inventory management helped it weather the sector downturn better than others," noted IDC.
