While Samsung faced some initial hiccups with its Galaxy Fold, there are others such as Huawei and Motorola waiting in the wings with their foldable innovations," added Kumari.Smartphones, as well as the ultrabooks are also eating up the tablet market."Tablets fits somewhere inbetween the ultrabooks and smartphones. While increased size of screen and affordability of smartphone are primarily the main reasons behind the decline of tablet market, Ultrabooks with better processors and RAM, are also posing stiff competition to tablets,' said Kanika Jain, manager, New Initiatives, CMR.Due to its shrinking Tablet business, DataWind has recently closed down its two manufacturing facilities in India.The trend in the first quarter is expected to continue with a combination of new trends and opportunities such as shift from 3G to 4G."In the coming quarters, tablet market will increase because of launch of new models by Lenovo in tablets. 4G tablets have already captured the majority of the market while 2G have seen continuous decline in India," said Kumari.( With inputs from IANS )
