The tablet market in Russia has grown by 125%

Svyaznoy and Euroset presented reports for 2013 on the tablet market in Russia. The figures vary slightly, but the general trend is the same: the market is in the stage of active growth.

So, in 2013, it was sold on the market:

  • Svyaznoy: 7.2 million tablets worth 81.4 billion (in physical terms, the figures increased by 125%, in monetary terms – by 65%)
  • Euroset: 6.7 million tablets worth 78 billion (growth of 107% and 55%, respectively)

The main driver of the market was the fall in the average cost of the device. Relatively high-quality gadgets have appeared on the market for less than 2.5 thousand rubles from B-manufacturers, Svyaznoy employees claim in their report. 

Average receipt for the device in 2013:

  • Svyaznoy: 11,380 rubles (27% drop)
  • Euroset: 11,600 rubles (25% drop)

The activity of B-brands has significantly hit Apple’s positions. Now iOS tablets account for only 17% of the Russian market.
