On June 4, this is a time of change, in the largest computer exhibition in Asia this year, personal computing has radically reduced to a supporting role.

Computex 2014 has been officially opened in Taipei. As Asia's second-largest PC maker behind Lenovo, Acer computers its not in this exhibition, this is the first time. Acer showed off a Smartphone , smart watches and other small products. As the world's biggest maker of PC chips, Intel is instead mainly showcase new software and mobile devices.

As millions of consumers migrating to Tablet and smartphone platforms, PC makers are trying to adapt to market changes. Market research firm IDC expects global PC shipments will decline this year to 6%, this downward trend will continue until at least the year 2018. Major research institutions predicted that Smartphone shipments are expected to grow this year by more than 20% that by 2018, wearable, and other smart devices shipments are expected to grow by at least 10 times.

Zhan Ruini, President from Intel (Ren é e James) Computex keynote, we can feel the mood down the computer industry. A few years ago, Intel launched new products, for example in 2011 and 2012 focus on this, Intel was trying to restore growth in the computer industry.

But this year, Zhan Ruini has not submitted any new slogan, has yet to announce new products. Instead, she reiterated that Intel will support the "two in one" products, such as a removable or folding Tablet notebooks. She also said Intel is committed to supporting the Android tablet device.

This fall, powered by next-generation Intel chip hardware product will be officially listed. But Zhan Ruini emphasizes support for new chips and software, rather than technological leaps.

"Our partners can now launch a broad range of Intel flat, for example, different prices, different users. You can select Windows product, you can also select Android products. "Zhan Ruini said.

To compensate for losses brought about by falling PC sales, PC manufacturers trying to develop new products, mobile and wearable devices become the focus of their concerns. But analysts believe the show attendance has slipped this year, the computer industry has yet to emerge to help itself out of the doldrums of a revolutionary product.

At this year's show, Acer showcased its new smartphones and the first smart watch Liquid Leap. ASUS display "plate + laptop + Smartphone" three-in-one device, the device can run Windows and Android software.

HSBC analyst at CLSA, said: "hardware product design basic trend is an extension of the previous two years. ”

As the hardware is more mature, and hardware manufacturers are starting to pay more attention to software functionality. From cell phone Wireless charging to computer operations technology without hands, then to phone transfer pictures, Intel and mediatek's technology is designed to provide daily life more convenient.

Computex 2014 showroom, smart watches and wearable device prototype is also very popular. While analysts believe that wearable devices have growth potential, but they concern traditional PC makers in the wearable market expansion.

Analysts at Barclays Bank analyst Yang Yingchao believes that current fitness brands such as Nike, Fitbit, Jawbone is still ruler of wearable devices market. He said: "while we are optimistic about wearable market, but we are still not sure whether Asian brands to compete effectively, can make use of its success in the PC and Smartphone models chasing market leader. ”

Although the scenery is no longer on the PC at the Computex exhibition, some technology executives are optimistic that the computer industry is in the process of evolution, but not decline.

United Kingdom ARM chip design company, Chief Marketing Officer of Yian·delu (Ian Drew), said: "I think this industry is still profitable. You just need to adapt to the new world, instead of remaining in the old world. If you stay in the old world, the market is indeed shrinking. ”
