A report by Futuresource Consulting has forecast a growth in the use of 2-in-1 devices (notebook/tablet combination) of 11% in the US education sector, doubling their market share in the third quarter of 2015. These rising sales in K-12 schools is a reflection of a trend in the general market where global shipments of PCs were weak, apart from 2-in-1 devices which bucked the trend. This shift in consumer behaviour has caused technology manufacturers such as Toshiba, HP and Lenovo to upgrade their 2-in-1 devices in order to take advantage of this change. Schools are choosing these devices due to their flexibility and adaptability to meet students needs.
