Eric Smith, senior analyst, Tablet & Touchscreen Strategies service, said: “As a device, the tablet is going through a period of recalibration as productivity becomes more important, enterprises purchase more touchscreen and mobile first devices for a new generation of workers, and consumers begin paring down ownership of multiple computing devices.”
