New Delhi: After two quarters of decline, the global PC market grew 1.5 per cent year-on-year in April-June 2019 with shipments totalling about 63 million units, data from research firm Gartner showed.

The worldwide shipment was at about 62 million units in the second quarter of 2018, Gartner said in its preliminary results for April-June 2019.

"Worldwide PC shipments' growth was driven by demand from the Windows 10 refresh in the business market in the second quarter of 2019.

Desktop PC growth was strong, which offset a decline in mobile PC shipments," Gartner senior principal analyst Mikako Kitagawa said.

She added that additionally, there are signs that the Intel CPU shortage is easing, which has been an ongoing impact to the market for the past 18 months.
