The post-PC era has come!

The term post-PC era has appeared for a long time, can be traced back to 2000, when it has been 20 years since IBM launched the personal computer (PC), PC business is at its peak, the Internet is also booming, although it encountered the first bubble, but PC sales have been rising steadily, computer cities all over the country are thriving, if it is said to be the post-PC era around 2000 I guess a lot of people will scoff.

The real time to make the term "post-PC era" acceptable to everyone should be in 2011, a decade later, when Apple released the fourth generation of iphone phones and the second generation of ipad tablets. At this time, mobile applications have gradually improved and started to * * to corporate users. Some office APP began to come to the stage, and it was in this year that global PC sales began to decline.

(statistics of PC shipments in recent 8 years)

According to Gartner, global smart device sales in 2011 are as follows:

Sales of mobile phones were 487.7 million, an increase of 62.7% over the same period last year.

There were 63.2 million tablets, an increase of 274.2% over the same period last year.

PC sales: 416 million units, down 23% from the same period last year

Smartphone sales surpassed PC for the first time. The post-PC era is officially announced.

Can smart mobile devices such as mobile phones and tablets replace PC?

According to the script, it should be the counterattack of the mobile phone, the PC is losing one after another, and finally withdraw from the historical stage of a happy ending, while the real world is not a movie, PC is not the final BOSS, obviously it is impossible to produce a popular small potato counterattack script, although the computing power of the smartphone is now very powerful, in the original social attributes plus later entertainment attributes, making the mobile phone become a necessity for individuals or families. Make PC at home dispensable. Home PC is originally for entertainment rather than office use. Apart from the high demand of some game enthusiasts and performance-seeking designers, mobile phones and tablets are enough to support home users. In terms of corporate users, PC still plays the leading role, which is a battlefield that mobile phones and tablets cannot conquer.

Will PC's last home-office computers be replaced by cloud desktops?

The office computer we are talking about here can be understood as a certain scale of centralized use of office scenes, such as enterprises, governments, hospitals, schools and other places where computers will be used for office work. In these application scenarios, PC broke out strong vitality and desire for survival. Under the background of weak PC sales, it is the office demand of enterprises that supports half of PC sales. But there is still an inevitable competitor: cloud desktops. In fact, cloud desktop technology has been around for some years, but at the beginning, due to immature technology and poor experience, the scope of application has been greatly limited, mainly in school computer rooms, electronic reading rooms and other places. As the technology continues to mature, cloud desktops will continue to improve in terms of user experience. Especially in large-scale use, the advantage of lower cost than PC is more obvious, which is the primary reason why many users choose cloud desktop.

Will PC die?

According to the data of IDC, the sales of PC in China in 2018 was about 53 million, and the total shipments of thin clients used for cloud desktops exceeded 2.375 million. Among them, shipments of traditional thin clients reached 1.396 million and cloud terminals of ARM architecture increased to 979000. In this way, PC is like a giant, overlooking the budding grass on the cloud desktop, which is still unable to shake the dominance of PC, so it is too early to discuss whether PC will die or not.

Cloud desktop for PC there is still a lot of room for progress, in this wave of cloud desktop wave, Yu Longyun also joined in, contribute their own strength, after more than 8 years of accumulation and precipitation, Yu Longyun continue to learn from the actual project experience, the implementation of each project are improving, and strive for the best experience for users We all know that only by mastering our own core technology can we occupy a favorable position in the market competition, so over the years, Yu Longyun has continued to invest in research and development, starting with the improvement at the bottom of the system and making continuous breakthroughs in the efficiency of the connection agreement. Only with a little bit of results now, Yulong will continue to work in the cloud desktop industry in the future, providing more simple and reliable cloud desktop solutions for the offices of small and medium-sized enterprises.
