  "summary": "Mac shipments declined by 11.3% in the third quarter of 2026, according to IDC's latest preliminary estimates, but Apple managed to increase its market share as worldwide PC shipments fell more sharply. Apple shipped an estimated 5.9 million Macs between July and September, up from 6.7 million a year earlier, giving the company a market share of 9.5%, compared to 8.5% in the third quarter of 2025. Despite the decline in overall PC shipments, which dropped to 62.7 million units from 78.5 million a year earlier, Apple retained fourth place in IDC's vendor rankings.",
