Surprisingly iPad's Drop In Sales Is Not Samsung's Gain, Welcome To Tablet Transformation

Evidently the tablets-are-dead meme lasted less than a week

"But if not Samsung then which companies are taking up the slack? The big gainer in tablets is Lenovo according to the IDC data.

Lenovo continued to climb the rankings ladder, surpassing ASUS and moving into the third spot in the tablet market, shipping 2.4 million units and grabbing 4.9% markets share. The top 5 was rounded out by ASUS and Acer, with 4.6% and 2.0% share, respectively.

But IDC also make the point that their “other” category is also growing. There are more vendors in the market and more are gaining traction. This section covers 37% of the market overall, which indicates a new phase in market dynamics."
