Apple dominates tablet processor market with 59% share
Although the second quarter of 2021 has already ended, experts from the analytical company Strategy Analytics have just summed up the results of the first quarter in the market of application processors for tablets. According to them, this market has been showing growth for the fifth quarter in a row: both deliveries in physical terms and revenue are growing.
Growth of revenue of suppliers in annual terms amounted to 33%. The market reached $ 761 million. The market leader is still Apple, which accounted for 59% of all revenue in the quarter. Intel is in second place with 14%, and Qualcomm is in third with 10%. The top five also include MediaTek and Samsung LSI.
Analysts point out that Apple’s share has peaked in the past nine years. In annual terms, Apple’s revenue in this market grew by 60%. The success has been driven by demand for restrictive measures during the pandemic.
In terms of numbers, Apple is also in the lead. In second place is MediaTek. Unlike Apple, it does not manufacture tablets itself, but supplies processors for them to other manufacturers. Major customers include Amazon, Lenovo, Samsung and Asus. Strategy Analytics estimates that MediaTek increased shipments of tablet processors by 92% over the year. Similarly, the low average selling price prevented the increase in revenue.

But Intel only managed to release competitors for the Threadripper 5000. Asus confirms that the Ryzen Threadripper 7000 will be released in the second half of the year
AMD is indeed going to launch Ryzen Threadripper 7000 processors in the second half of this year. Previously, these were just rumors and leaks, and now this was announced by an Asus representative.
Interestingly, he mentioned this in a video demonstrating the work of the Intel Sapphire Rapids WS platform, the processors of which are currently competing with the Threadripper 5000, but soon they will have to compete with the Threadripper 7000.
Threadripper 7000 will switch to a new socket and a new Zen 4 architecture. This will bring them support for DDR5 memory, probably PCIe 5.0 interface. In addition, the top-end Threadripper 7000s are expected to be 96-core, just like their sister Epyc Genoa.

JetStream are back. Palit GeForce RTX 4080 and 4070 Ti JetStream graphics cards unveiled – and they have one notable difference from the competition
Palit returns to the production of JetStream video cards. More than two years after the release of the GeForce RTX 3070 JetStream, the company introduced the GeForce RTX 4080 and 4070 Ti JetStream. These models differ from analogues in the absence of RGB backlighting.
At one time, manufacturers of various hardware were so carried away by the introduction of backlighting into everything that is possible that now its absence is already perceived as a “trick”. On the other hand, the frequencies here are completely standard, and from this point of view, the lack of backlight is more of a savings factor.
Video cards look almost the same – and rather modestly. However, they are long – 329 mm (after all, there are three fans) and rather thick (they take up 3.1 slots). It is possible that dual-fan models will also appear in the JetStream series, but already based on the GeForce RTX 4070 or GeForce RTX 4060. The cost of new products has not yet been announced.
