We have observed more and more gaming laptops entering the market this year and big players like ASUS introducing mid-priced gaming laptops to undercut the competition.
Now it looks like a full-on "price war" will be triggered thanks to new entrants and increasingly fierce
competition next year, reports
Taiwan's DigiTimes.
The gaming laptop market was once dominated by MSI and Dell (via
Alienware). As other PC vendors have noticed the buoyancy of the PC gaming market, more and more have shifted from producing traditional laptops (often sold with slim margins) to enter the gaming laptop market. Now there are many more gaming laptops coming to market with MSI and Dell facing growing competition from ASUS, Levovo, Acer and Hewlett Packard.
Thanks to the above situation, DigiTimes expects a full-on price war to be triggered next year. Its Taiwan-based supply chain laptop makers have tipped it off about the likelihood of such fierce competition.
