Abstract

In the second half of 2012, the competitions in the global tablet market intensifies as Apple, Amazon, and Google launches new mid-range tablets while Microsoft, at the same time, unveils its own-brand tablet device Surface that runs on Windows 8. However, Microsoft's move is expected to exert limited impact on the tablet market in 2012 as the Windows 8 products were not available until the fourth quarter of 2012. On the other hand, branded vendors' mid-range models and the rapid development of white-box tablets in emerging markets are expected to shape the future of the tablet touchscreen panel industry. This report offers insight into the changes in tablet product development and various touch control solutions as well as the share of each solution.
