Telecoms giant Huawei enters PC market, battling Lenovo, HP, Dell

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Chinese network and smartphone giant #Huawei [HWT.UL] said on Tuesday it plans a global expansion into computers, posing a fresh challenge to established PC players in a market that has suffered from two years of steady sales volume declines. At a news conference in Berlin, Huawei introduced its first line-up of three personal computer models for consumers including a 15.6-inch screen notebook, a 2-in-1 tablet and notebook hybrid and an ultra slim, metallic 13-inch notebook. Initially, the new entrant is targeting the premium-priced consumer computer segment, pitting it against dominant PC players #Lenovo, #HP and #Dell [DI.UL], which collectively hold more than 50 percent of the market and possibly even #Apple ' s shrinking #Mac computer business. Huawei's Matebook X is a fanless notebook with splash-proof screen and combined fingerprint sign-on and power button, priced between 1,399 and 1,699 euros ($1,570-$1,900).
