While the global PC shipments grew 45 per cent (on-year) to 75.6 million in Q1 2021 owing to robust demand, an ongoing chip shortage will continue to affect the shipment schedules of PC brands and ODMs (original design manufacturers) in the second half this year, according to a new report.  

With a 24 per cent market share, Lenovo took the first place again in Q1 2021, followed by HP at 23 per cent and Dell at 17 per cent.
