The market has recently ushered in some product updates, and various channels are also actively preparing for large-scale promotions and the holiday season. Artificial intelligence technology is gradually being integrated into tablets. Although the market is mostly in its early stages except for the Co-Pilot+ of the Microsoft Surface tablet, these innovations have brought a wave of positive signals to the development of the tablet market, stimulated consumer interest, and are expected to drive up the market average price.
The tablet stand market size is valued at $1.5 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $3.2 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 9.2% from 2024 to 2030.
The tablet stand market represents a growing segment within the broader consumer electronics industry, reflecting the increasing reliance on tablets for personal and professional use.
With the rise of remote working and digital hopping, demand for accessories that enhance the user experience has surged. The global tablet holder market is valued at approximately $1.5 billion by 2023, and forecasts indicate a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 7.5% from 2024 to 2030.
