Very old news, Dell was No.1 in Q1-2014, HP was No.1 in Q2-2014. Lenovo has some market share because it got the entire distribution network of the legendary IBM Thinkpad, and also because it is much cheaper compared to the reputed brands. Though it has successfully managed to destroy the reputation of original Thinkpad after buying it.
Btw, none of the key components inside a Lenovo is Chinese; Windows OS, DOS, Ubuntu, AMD / Intel processor, Intel chipset, Seagate hard disk, Hynix RAM, which one is Chinese, the plastic casing?
But still they cannot assemble all these well to make a top class system like a Dell or HP.
Check this:
HP: HP rallied again to their top spot with a market share of 29.5% in the India PC market. They grew by 82.1% quarter-on-quarter over Q1, 2014. Their execution of large education deals in the state government of Tamil Nadu ensured the growth in commercial business. They were equally supported with the growth in their consumer business too. Price competitiveness and well spread partner coverage across the country has been HP’s key strength. The successful launch of Bing SKU and the first mover advantage it had garnered, aided HP’s growth in Q2, 2014.
Dell: Dell captured the second spot with a market share of 19.1%. Dell continues to record substantial growth owing to its recent channel realignment, improved management of its partners, investment on quality resources and the addition of new partners both in SMB and enterprise business. Their participation in DGS&D aided their commercial business incrementally.
Lenovo: Lenovo took the third spot with 13.9% market share in the quarter. It made a recovery in Q2 after initial concerns around inventory fillings and channel engagement measures. Growing focus on mid market accounts and expanding coverage should boost their growth in the commercial segment in the coming months.
