Computer sales in Egypt increased to 500,000 devices in 2020 because of remote work and study related to the Covid-19 pandemic, according to Ali Tolba, chairperson of the Delta Company, the Daily News reported. He said that  total sales of computer hardware in Egypt amounted to about EGP 3.8 billion in 2020. The mobile market fell by 4-5 percent last year, when sales of smartphones and accessories reached about EGP 47 billion, Tolba said.
