IDC: Global PC shipments in the second quarter of 2026 fell by 4.9% year-on-year to 68.2 million units.

According to the financial news app, Caijing, global PC shipments in the second quarter of 2026 fell by 4.9% year-on-year to 68.2 million units according to IDC data. This is the first drop after nine consecutive quarters of growth. The continuous shortage of memory chips is the main reason for this reversal, prompting manufacturers to stock up as early as possible.
