The tablet market in Vietnam is largely fueled by Vietnam's growing investment in digital transformation, especially in education and public administration. As the government promotes the use of digital technologies in schools, tablets are being used to enable engaging learning, particularly in rural and remote communities. The inclusion of tablets in national education schemes facilitates enhanced student interest, access to online curricula, and customized learning experiences. Moreover, digital governance changes are introducing mobile devices into regular routine work, improving public service provision. This development also gains strength from increasing internet penetration and widespread use of cloud platforms, which encourage mobile and tablet adoption. With continued modernization of its digital infrastructure in Vietnam, demand for tablets as affordable, mobile computing solutions is likely to grow, thus supporting Vietnam tablet market growth. According to the reports, in October 2024, BYD widened its Vietnam operations to fix the Apple tablets, further establishing Vietnam as an important nexus in the world tablet supply chain and production ecosystem.

One of the main drivers of tablet use in Vietnam is accelerating consumer demand for thin, multi-purpose electronic products that bring the mobility of smartphones and functionality of laptops.

Moreover, with changing lifestyle trends, particularly among young professionals, students, and city families, tablets are being used more for purposes like browsing, entertainment, remote working, and e-learning. Their compatibility with productivity tools, portability, and long battery lives make them the perfect travel companions for today's digital consumers. The growth of the gig economy and flexible work schedule is also driving tablet purchases higher, as consumers look for budget-friendly and efficient substitutes for conventional computing devices. In addition, the Vietnam tablet market outlook has shown a steady demand for screen-based entertainment such as video streaming and mobile gaming, which tablets address well. Such changing consumer behavior, backed by an expanding middle class and increased digital literacy, continues to drive tablet demand in both urban and semi-urban areas.
