We recently reported that the Google Chromebook sales have reached 5.7 million in 2014, with more expected later this year. And according to a report by research firm Gartner, this is indeed true as they believe there will be at least 7.5 million units of the Chromebooks sold in 2015.
It is interesting to note that most of the Chromebook sales come from the education sector, while small businesses and professionals tend to look towards alternatives. But with more powerful Chromebooks scheduled to arrive later this year, we expect that to change.
“Since the first model launched in mid-2011, Google’s Chromebook has seen success mainly in the education segment across all regions,” said Isabelle Durand, principal analyst at Gartner. “In 2014, the education sector purchased 72% of Chromebooks in EMEA, 69% in Asia Pacific, and 60% in the US.”
Luckily for Google, Chromebooks are also being used outside of the U.S. on a large scale, which goes to show that there’s plenty of awareness among global consumers about the product.
