HDMI-enabled mobile PC shipments to cross 300 million in 2014


HDMI-enabled mobile PC shipments will surpass 300 million
units in 2014, according to In-Stat.


Last year the industry experienced significant increase
for HDMI in portable consumer devices, including HD camcorders and digital
still cameras (DSC). In addition, on the PC side, HDMI’s share of mobile PCs,
graphics cards, and PC monitors continued to increase.


HDMI has made significant strides in mobile PCs over the
past three years, since it has two big advantages in this market,” said Brian
O’Rourke, research director, In-Stat research.


Its small size is a better fit for size-conscious mobile
PC OEMs. In addition, HDMI’s popularity across the CE segment makes HDMI a
popular choice, especially for consumer mobile PCs. Dell, Sony, HP, Acer, and
Toshiba all feature HDMI in their consumer notebook lines. Netbooks are
adopting HDMI as well, particularly higher-end devices that are marketed as
media devices, so that they can connect to an HDTV,”  O’Rourke added.


Embedded DisplayPort will have a 35 percent attach rate
in mobile PCs in 2013.


117 million LCD PC monitors will ship with DVI in 2011.


HDMI will have an 82percent attach rate in A/V receivers
in 2012.


The report also forecasts over 19 million HDMI-enabled
digital camcorders will ship in 2014.
