Lenovo now sells more mobile devices than it does computers

What a ride it has been for Lenovo of late. Last quarter, the company unseated HP to sell the most computers globally and on Thursday the company said it’s selling even more mobile devices helped largely by a doubling of phone sales in the last three months. Alongside the 14.5 million PCs Lenovo moved between April and June this year, it sold 15.8 million phones and 2.3 million tablets. The PC sales figure is actually down 11 percent from the year ago period but as Lenovo positions itself as what it calls a “PC plus” company, mobile device sales helped offset lost revenue from lower computer sales.
