Taipei, Dec. 11 (CNA) The nine-day 2016 IT Month, one of Taiwan’s largest 3C product exhibitions, ending in Taipei on Sunday, attracted about 950,000 visitors, little changed from a year earlier, according to the organizer Taipei Computer Association (TCA, 台北市電腦公會).

The TCA said that the high number of visitors to the 3C trade fair showed that consumers here remained highly interested in electronics gadgets with buying focusing on notebook computers and PC peripheral products.

After the trade show ended in Taipei, the IT Month will continue in Taichung during Dec. 16-21, in Kaohsiung during Dec. 29-Jan. 3, 2017, and in Tainan during Jan. 6, 2017-Jan. 11, 2017, which is expected to spark further buying in high-tech devices provided by international brands, the organizer said.

The TCA said that notebook computers became the most popular products in the Taipei event as consumers turned more interested in gaming PCs and mid- to high-end models to boost sales.    [FULL  STORY]
