The global PC market has reportedly faced a sharp drop in shipments in the second quarter of 2022.
According to preliminary data analysed by research firm Gartner, sales fell by 12.6 percent year-on-year to 72.01m units.
Gartner puts the decline down to three main causes: the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the cost of living crisis caused by inflation and steep downturn in demand for Chromebooks.
