http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/lenovo-earnings-05-23-13-01.jpgLenovo’s just announced its Q4 and full year 2012/13 financial results, and its good news on all the indices for the Chinese computer maker. It took in $7.8 billion in revenue for the quarter and $34 billion for the full year, both records for the company, while earning $635 million for the full year – another new high. The only sore spot for Q4 was Lenovo’s laptop business, which dropped two percent over last year to $4.2 billion, but that’s a far milder plummet than many PC makers saw. Otherwise, desktop PCs held flat for the company in difficult times, and the company held firm as China’s number two smartphone manufacturer, seeing shipments grow at 206 percent year-over-year, double the average rate. It remains to be seen if Lenovo can continue to buck the downward PC trend that’s continued unabated with the release of Windows 8 – but if so, maybe we’ll finally see some of its smartphones over here.
