Wi-Fi does not always provide the ideal connectivity solution for mobile computing on the go. Patchy coverage and public Wi-Fi risks regarding security and sharing personal details are key factors why consumers and commercial accounts find advantages in cellular service. Still, in an economy that is limiting budgets around the world, demand is shifting slightly away from cellular tablets, especially as 5G tablets carry high premiums over their LTE and Wi-Fi only competitors. Despite this near-term set-back, we expect cellular tablet shipments to increase at a 1% six-year compound average growth rate by 2028 as mobility is an underlying need in a world more dependent on remote work than ever. This report forecasts global tablet shipments and installed base by connectivity and by SIM by 3 form factors in the 6 major regions for the years 2010 to 2028, providing analysis and data splits by 3G, 4G, 5G, and eSIM.
