- Professional gamers
The top three end-user segments in the global gaming laptop market are discussed below:
Global gaming laptop market by professional gamers
Professional gamers play games for their living, who generate incomes by winning cash prizes in competitions. Most hardcore gamers, after few years of gaming, become professional gamers. As the global gaming market is growing rapidly, there are various platforms being introduced to gamers to play the way they like.
According to Ujjwal Doshi, a lead consumer electronics research analyst from Technavio, “During the forecast period, the professional gamer segment will grow at the highest CAGR. This is because professional gamers are highly skilled gamers that have been mastered for years. Therefore, the passion and seriousness of professional gamers for gaming are likely to drive the global gaming laptop market during the forecast period.”
Global gaming laptop market by hardcore gamers
“A large number of hardcore gamers own gaming devices, such as consoles, PCs, and laptops, as gaming becomes an important part of their lives. The number of hardcore gamers is likely to grow, which will drive the growth of the global gaming laptop market during the forecast period,” says Ujjwal.
In 2016, China accounted for the highest number of hardcore gamers. Thus, APAC is likely to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period.
Global gaming laptop market by casual gamers
Casual gamers play games for fun and play hardcore games occasionally. They usually have no preference for gaming platforms. As gaming is not very important to this end-user segment, and gaming is limited to fun only, they tend to spend lesser on gaming software and hardware. These gamers prefer playing free-to-play games than subscription-based games.
