18.7 million tablets reportedly shipped in Q3, iPad market share grows

18.7 million tablets reportedly shipped in Q3, iPad market share grows

. Tablet vendors shipped 18.7 million units during the third quarter of this year, DigiTimes said on Tuesday. Third-quarter shipments were up 27.5% over the second quarter, but the increase was less than the 60.9% jump in shipments between the first and second quarters of this year. The slower growth was attributed to a weaker global economy, and the entire industry suffered. Apple is estimated to have shipped 13 million units in the September quarter, fewer than DigiTimes's prediction that Apple would ship 14-15 million units. That figure, however, is still up up 36.8% over the second quarter.
