In the spring of this year, some predicted that the gaming laptop market would grow at a solid pace until 2023, adding an average of 22% each year. A few years ago, laptop makers got their bearings quickly enough to offer portable gaming platforms for PC gamers, and MSI is considered to be one of the pioneers in this segment, apart from Alienware and Razer. ASUS was able to quickly compete with her, which allowed both companies to compensate for the decline in demand for components for desktop systems and the approaching saturation of the traditional laptop market.
The gaming laptop market has grown more than twelvefold since 2013, according to Statista data for July of this year. Website notes that at the end of this year, the demand for gaming laptops will stop growing, and next year its growth rate will not be able to compare with previous years. Notebook makers who simply need new ideas to grow their business do not find this trend very encouraging, so they are ready to focus on a new target audience - representatives of creative professions who actively use high-performance PCs in their activities.
Computer-aided design specialists may consider themselves new potential victims of marketers, although video editing or computer graphics enthusiasts can also be included in this βrisk categoryβ. Apple's products in this segment are still dominant, but laptop manufacturers of other brands are determined to push this company. It remains to be hoped that the trend will be supported by the developers of central and graphic processors, since it will be difficult to attract creative professionals to new products by display characteristics and memory capacity alone.
