The beginning of the next quarter is a time to sum up the results of the previous one, and the analytical agency Gartner again updated the forecasts for the development of the PC and mobile devices market for this and the next few years.  The material divides the device into several categories: PCs and laptops, expensive ultra-mobile devices (ultrabooks and large convertible devices), basic ultra-mobile devices (mostly tablets), and mobile phones (including smartphones). Although the segment of personal computers and laptops will continue to shrink, this year this process will slow down slightly (up to 3% in annual comparison), and thanks for this should corporate customers who transfer their computer fleet to Windows 10. The process is slightly slowed by the increased prices for solid-state drives And RAM, but PC manufacturers are still trying to partially level it, sacrificing part of the profits. In the smartphone segment, demand is shifting from basic models and products of the average price level to more expensive options.  Samsung and Apple should receive their dividends from this trend.  The share of classical "button" devices is reduced.  Judge for yourself, out of 1.9 billion mobile devices sold this year, smartphones will have 1.6 billion products.  Compared with 2016, sales of smartphones will increase by 5%. Basic smartphone models will increase sales by 6.8% compared to 2016, to 686 million units.  The average price for the implementation of smartphones, however, will continue to grow, as consumers tend to switch to more expensive models.  By the way, all devices listed in the table, by the end of this year, will reduce sales by 0.3%, and only in 2018 will return to growth - by 1.6%.  In the following years, according to Gartner experts, the personal devices market will most likely change the technologies of artificial intelligence, including "personal voice assistants", as well as new form factors and the transition to 5G generation communication networks.

Developed by joint efforts of the activists, the open BenchTable stand was placed on the conveyor by one of the hull manufacturers, and participants of all kinds of events involving the dispersal of computer components had a reliable "foundation" for assembling an open stand.  Now, as noted on the project site, work is under way to improve the prototype of a smaller version of the accessory, which allows the use of Mini-ITX motherboards. "Scaling" to such a size required some layout compromises.  For example, power supplies can only use SFX form factors.   By the way, the development of the design continues, so those wishing to help authors can comment on the pages of the profile resource. In the near future, the production of compact open stands OBT-Mini should be launched.   Select Rating : Currently 10.00/10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 49165 Rating: 10.0/10 (11 votes cast) Portable outdoor stand - soon and for Mini-ITX systems	Add Comment ( 1 ) PORTABLE OUTDOOR STAND - SOON AND FOR MINI-ITX SYSTEMS
