ULTRABOOKS MARKET OVERVIEW

The global ultrabooks market size was USD 42.14 billion in 2024 and is projected to touch USD 372.58 billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 27.4% during the forecast period.

An Ultrabook is a laptop that is incredibly thin, light, and maneuverable. In order to offer an alternative to tablets or notebook PCs with the same level of mobility but more capability and power efficiency than netbooks, Intel introduced them as part of their "Ultrabook" marketing. In addition to having a 13.0" or smaller display, weighing less than three pounds (approximately two kilograms), and utilizing Intel's Core i-series chipsets ("Core"), ultrabooks must also have an SSD of at least 128GB in order to be given the name. Due to their strict specs, Ultrabook's are quite close to Apple's MacBook Air range, which is well-liked by business users looking for a portable computer that can perform the majority of activities effectively without the need for additional hardware features like touchscreen displays.

In the past, ultrabooks were the most expensive, high-end laptops available. The Acer Swift 3 OLED, which combines a beautiful screen and high-end components in a fairly priced compact, is one of many lightweight Ultrabook with elegant designs that are surprisingly reasonable. This was the case a decade ago, but not now. Naturally, high-end Ultrabook like the amazing Samsung Galaxy Book2 Pro or the Dell XPS 13 are still readily accessible (even if the latter has had a rather divisive redesign in its most recent incarnation). Since they are made of high-quality materials like machined aluminum and magnesium alloy, which is lighter than aluminum but yet quite robust, many of the best laptops on the market fall under the Ultrabook category.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Disruption of Supply Chain to Hamper Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the ultrabooks experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Companies in the consumer goods industry have faced difficulties as a result of the epidemic in one way or another. Importantly, according to research from the Institute for supply management, supply chain interruptions have proliferated all across the world, forcing the majority of organizations to lower their revenue targets. Due in large part to COVID-19, the transition to a world that is primarily online has been expedited. Businesses had to adopt digital-first strategies and become more adaptable with their product offerings. In actuality, the consumer products sector as a whole has been compelled into the digital age. Implementing the necessary modifications is undoubtedly difficult for companies with little cash flow, but in many ways, the move to an online world was unavoidable.

LATEST TRENDS

The Product Being Student Friendly to Uplift Market Profile

Due to its ability to do a variety of productivity tasks while remaining tiny and light enough to be carried around all day in a bag, Ultrabooks are fantastic student computers. For the same reasons, they rank among the finest laptops for businesses. Any Mac user out there may be tempted to convert to an Ultrabook if they have access to one like the Dell XPS 15 (2022). Even while it may be a touch weak for high-end gaming, it can easily handle all of your creative and productivity activities with up to an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Ti. With its carbon-fiber wrist rest and strong frame, it's also a wonderfully attractive product that raises the bar for what a well-designed Windows laptop can look like.

DRIVING FACTORS

Light Weight of the Product to Attract Consumers

A business uses ultrabooks primarily for two things: work and enjoyment. By substituting heavy, clunky laptops with ultra-thin, light computers that take up very little real estate on a desk or in the back of an airline seat, businesses utilize ultrabooks to boost productivity. The devices enable instant access to all required files without time-consuming setups like numerous account logins or software downloads. They weigh less and take up less space within carrying bags than conventional computers, making them easier to transport. Battery life is rarely an issue even if left unused for extended periods of time with portable power banks because they can be conveniently accessible and charged while travelling. This is anticipated to boost ultrabooks market growth.

MAC Segment of the Market to boost Market Growth

An Ultrabook with the Apple operating system is known as a MAC System. This computer has Wi-Fi, audio, video, and camera built-in as well as iOS as the default operating system. High-end graphics cards are typically included with MAC systems to deliver best-in-class performance for gaming applications. There are two different kinds of devices: desktop computers that can be altered by swapping out the hardware components, and laptops that were made expressly with space restrictions and are therefore less customizable. Since 1981, when IBM first made the first category available as part of their "PC" product line, it has been developed. The main reason why people buy these PCs is because they want something that is portable and light yet still offers desktop-level functionality.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

High Price to Impede Market Expansion

The expensive pricing is a drawback. A laptop with the same hardware requirements will cost between two and four times as much as an Ultrabook. This is because these gadgets differ in some ways. The inability to replace components because they are all built-in is another drawback. It is preferable to purchase an Ultrabook with good features if the buyer is not put off by the price and can do so. It features a more appealing appearance, utilizes cutting-edge technologies, and has quick and effective hardware components. Most significantly, it is lightweight and thin, making it easy to use. This is anticipated to constraint market growth.
