AI PCs boost PC industry revenue even as shipments fall

PC makers hit by memory chip shortages and higher costs are shifting toward selling fewer units at higher prices, and revenue performance has so far been solid. IDC said global PC shipments fell 4.9 percent in the second quarter from a year earlier, while prices are expected to rise as much as 20 percent this year and keep climbing through 2027. The Wall Street Journal reported HP, Dell and Lenovo posted revenue gains despite lower shipments.
