Stay-at-Home Economy Boosts Sales of E-sports Laptops and Peripherals


Mumbai- Taiwan: - As consumers have significantly cut down on going out due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns around the world, the "Stay-at-Home Economy" has been one of the main beneficiaries especially as it has driven a new wave of demand for e-sports products. 

According to the latest market survey, the sales volume of the first quarter this year of ASUS’s ROG esports laptops has grown by 40 % compared to last year, making it number 1 in the Taiwan market. At the same time, the sales of Acer’s esports laptops in the United States in the first quarter increased hugely by 49%, year-on-year, as it took the top spot in the first quarter with a market share of 25%. According to the International Data Corporation (IDC), the current esports laptop market will grow from just over 17 million units in 2019 to 26.8 million units in 2023. E-sports laptops allow players to satisfy both their entertainment and work needs, while driving sales opportunities for peripheral products, including screens, motherboards, keyboards, mouses, and headsets.

 Major Taiwanese e-sports manufacturers, such as Asus, rank first in e-sports notebooks with a market share of 39.6%, while the second and third places are held by MSI and Acer, respectively. In the survey about the world's best esports laptops in 2020, by the well-known American technology website "Techradar", Asus ranked first and third; MSI ranked fourth and Taiwan Excellence brands made up half of the top ten. ASUS’s ROG (Republic of Players), launched a series of products such as ROG Strix SCAR III, ROG Strix Hero III and ROG Strix G this year.
