Tablet sales will be better this year than originally thought, and they are only going to increase until at least 2016, IDC forecast Wednesday. Increased Android device shipments and demand for Apple’s iPad mini are making the market more robust, said IDC. IDC raised its 2013 worldwide sales projection to 122.3 units from its year-ago estimate of 117.1 million. Consumers will choose more on-the-go and affordable devices such as smartphones and tablets in the coming years.
