Global Smartwatch Shipments See YoY Growth After Two Quarters

  • In Q2 2023, global smartwatch shipments increased 11% YoY after declining for two successive quarters.

Seoul, New Delhi, Hong Kong, Beijing, London, Buenos Aires, San Diego – August 29, 2023

Global smartwatch shipments increased 11% YoY in Q2 2023 after declining in both Q4 2022 and Q1 2023, according to Counterpoint Research’s recently publishedGlobal Smartwatch Model Tracker.印度的发货量同比飙升70%,担任the primary driver for the global market’s rebound. China’s market also recorded a modest increase. Besides, a shift in the competitive landscape was evident as Huawei ascended to the second position in terms of global market share.

Research Analyst Woojin Sonsaid, “Huawei recorded impressive growth in Q2 2023, securing the second position in quarterly shipments for the first time in two years. The leading Chinese brand’s growth stagnated for some time due to technological sanctions and a slowdown in its domestic market. Although the Chinese market’s recovery remained lukewarm, Huawei aggressively pushed new flagship products such as the Watch 4 series into the market in Q2, achieving its highest quarterly shipments after 2020. Huawei seems to be determined to bounce back in the market. It remains to be seen whether this momentum can be effectively expanded to other sectors, such as smartphones.”

India Smartwatch Market’s 121% YoY Growth Restricts Global Decline to 1.5% in Q1 2023

  • The global smartwatch market continued to contract in Q1 2023 following an 8% YoY decline in Q4 2022.
  • Fire-Boltt surpassed Samsung for the first time in the global smartwatch market, capturing the second spot.
  • All regions except India witnessed a YoY decline in shipments in Q1 2023.

Seoul, New Delhi, Hong Kong, Beijing, London, Buenos Aires, San Diego – May 25, 2023

Global smartwatch shipmentscontracted 1.5% YoY in Q1 2023, according to Counterpoint Research’s latestGlobal Smartwatch Model Tracker.The 121% growth in India’s shipments managed to restrict the decline. This was the second consecutive quarter of a YoY decrease in global shipments, which were hit by the seasonal decline in demand for products from major players like Apple and Samsung, along with consumer sentiment dampened by global financial pressures.

Research Analyst Woojin Sonsaid, “The global smartwatch market, which had been experiencing steep growth for several years, has entered a period of stagnation since the end of last year when itdeclined 8% YoY in Q4 2022.Amid a global slowdown in demand for tech devices, the smartwatch consumption trend has also undergone a transformation. The market share of high-price and high-performance HLOS smartwatches*, primarily released by Apple and Samsung, decreased from 60% in Q1 2022 to 53% in Q1 2023. On the other hand, the market share of Basic smartwatches* significantly increased from 23% to 34% driven by rapid growth in the Indian market. Although the overall smartwatch shipment volume declined slightly compared to last year, affordable products that offer a certain level of performance generated substantial demand based on their price accessibility. These low-end smartwatches are also absorbing or replacing the existingsmartband market.”

Market summary

  • Apple’s shipment volume fell 20% YoY in Q1 2023. This was the first time in three years that its Q1 shipments fell below 10 million units. As a result, Apple’s market share, which was 32% in Q1 2022, dropped to 26%. This can be attributed to the ongoing macroeconomic crisis, which has led to decreased accessibility to relatively higher-priced Apple Watches. Despite the Apple Watch Series 8’s release about a month ahead of its predecessor, it did not achieve the same level of success as the previous model.
  • Indian brandFire-Bolttsurpassed Samsung for the first time and reached the second position in the global market. Its shipments increased by approximately three times compared to the previous year and saw a 57% growth compared to the previous quarter. This reflects the rapid growth of the Indian market, just like other local brands such asNoiseandboAt
  • WhileSamsungexperienced a 15% increase in shipments in its key market North America, it witnessed a decline in shipments in other major markets. As a result, its overall global shipments declined by 15% compared to the previous year and 21% compared to the previous quarter.
  • Huawei, the most influential Chinese OEM, saw a 14% YoY decline in its shipments in the Chinese market, which is a key market for the company. However, Huawei saw increased shipments in India, LATAM and MEA, limiting its overall decline in global shipments to 9%.

2022年全球Smartwatch发货量同比增长9%;Price Polarization Seen in Demand

  • The market showed decent YoY growth in 2022, though it dropped 8% YoY in Q4
  • Quarterly shipments turned to a YoY decline after seven consecutive quarters of growth.
  • Shipments in the >$400 price band more than doubled in 2022, while the mid-price range saw a YoY drop.
  • Indian brands such as Noise and Fire Boltt found spots in the global top 5 sellers’ list thanks to the rapid growth of their domestic market.

Seoul, New Delhi, Hong Kong, Beijing, London, Buenos Aires, San Diego – February 22, 2023

Theglobal smartwatch market shipmentsgrew 9% YoY in 2022 due to the strong YoY growth witnessed in the first three quarters of the year, according to Counterpoint Research’s recently publishedGlobal Smartwatch Model Tracker.But the shipments fell 8% YoY in Q4 2022 amid inflationary pressures and slowIndia growth.This was the market’s first negative growth in eight quarters since the pandemic hit the world in 2020.

The most striking feature of the year was price polarization in demand. Shipments in the mid-price range decreased while those in the >$400 and ≤$100 segments increased 104% and 41%, respectively, compared to the previous year.

Research Analyst Woojin Sonsaid, “Apple strongly drove the average selling price (ASP) rise in the global smartwatch market in 2022, especially in the >$400 price band. There are two main reasons for this ASP rise – a diversified Apple smartwatch line-up and a rise in the exchange rate. This year, Apple released its first premium model, Ultra, at a release price of $799 in the US. In addition, as the exchange rate rose, the local price of Apple Watch in various countries changed. The demand for the premium segment remained relatively strong despite the decline in consumer sentiment at the end of 2022.

Sonadded, “On the other hand, we must be cautious about the low-price band of sub-$100. While this segment expanded in 2022 along with the remarkable growth of India’s market, it showed a large withdrawal in Q4 when compared to Q3.”

Market summary

  • In 2022,Apple’s global market share decreased by 2.6%p with shipments remaining almost flat year on year. In terms of revenue, however, it grew 15% YoY, accounting for 56% of the global smartwatch market revenue and further widening the gap with No. 2 Samsung.
  • Samsung’s yearly shipments increased by 12% to account for more than 10% of global smartwatch shipments in 2022. Although sales of the newly released Galaxy Watch 5 series in the year were positive, its revenues only increased by less than 1%, which seems to be largely due to a slight drop in the ASP compared to the previous year.
  • Huawei‘s market share fell 0.5%p YoY due to the Chinese smartwatch market losing momentum to India in 2022. However, the brand’s revenue increased by 20% thanks to its relative focus on HLOS* smartwatches.
  • NoiseandFire Boltt, the Indian brands that supported the rapid growth of their home market, showed excellent growth in 2022. The two brands surpassed 5% of the global market share to rank fourth and fifth, respectively. Although the makers failed to beat Huawei as the Indian market’s growth slowed in Q4, they are attracting discussions on whether they will be able to threaten Samsung’s position beyond Huawei next year.
  • FitbitandXiaomi’s rankings fell to 10th and 11th in 2022 from 7th and 8th in the previous year. The strength of Indian brands was also affected, but these two brands failed to defend their share in their main markets like North America (Fitbit) and China (Xiaomi). Their shipments were decreased or flat compared to the previous year.

In terms of regions,North Americarecovered as the largest smartwatch market in Q4 2022, which also allowed it to remain in first place for a full year again. The Apple’s home market showed a significant increase in shipments QoQ, despite the sales of Apple Watches being lower than expected in the fourth quarter. However, North America’s share decreased slightly as India emerged as another core region in 2022.

India’s market more than doubled compared to 2021. It grew steadily until Q3 2022 but fell 36% QoQ in Q4.Senior Analyst Anshika Jainsaid, “The third quarter of 2022 saw a big rise because most of the brands pushed high inventories into the channel ahead of the festive season. Therefore, we saw a decline in shipments in the fourth quarter.”

在2022年第四季度,中国的出口ebounded for the first time in the year as the COVID-zero policy was eased, and both Huawei and Apple are received a positive response with their more diverse products.

New Delhi, Boston, Toronto, London, Hong Kong, Beijing, Taipei, Seoul – May 5, 2022

India’ssmartwatchmarket grew 173% YoY in Q1 2022 (January-March), according to the latest research from Counterpoint’s IoT Service. This is attributed to growing consumer interest, multiple launches during the quarter and the availability of various discount offers and promotions.

Commenting on the market trends,Senior Research Analyst Anshika Jain说,“贡献的< 5000印度卢比(67美元)再保险tail price band increased to 87% from 78% in Q1 2021. The INR 1,000-INR 2,000 ($13-$27) retail price band reached its highest ever share of 14% from just 2% a year ago. Many brands have started to focus on this low price tier to attract first-time users and acquire the smart band user base. Consumer awareness has also increased in this segment due to brands’ continuous efforts on marketing and promotions through online and offline channels.”

On brands, Jain said, “The top three brands captured 60% share in Q1 2022. Noise led the overall smartwatch market driven by its value-for-money offerings, the addition of relevant features to its product portfolio and emphasis on the Make-in-India scheme. Fire-Boltt emerged as the second-largest player for the first time due to its focus on affordability and the introduction of feature-packed products.

It also refreshed its portfolio in Q1 2022 with five new models.”

Commenting on product features,Research Analyst Harshit Rastogisaid, “The brands are pushing larger displays, which consumers are readily accepting. By pushing larger displays, the brands are also attracting smart band users as these bands have limited functionality due to smaller displays. The contribution of the >1.5-inch smartwatches increased to more than half of the total smartwatch market from just 11% last year. In addition, some of the most demanded features like SpO2 are now present at all price levels. Blood pressure monitoring as well as voice assistant are trickling down to lower price bands to attract budget-conscious customers.”

On domestic manufacturing, Rastogi said, “Multiple brands have already started domestic manufacturing. We could see a major jump in the contribution of domestically manufactured devices in the second half of 2022, especially from brands like Noise, boAt and realme.”

  • Noise continued to maintain its lead for the fourth consecutive quarter.
  • boAt Storm topped the best-selling model chart for the quarter.
  • Over 70% of the shipments were driven by Indian brands.

Boston, Toronto, London, Hong Kong, New Delhi, Beijing, Taipei, Seoul – September 9, 2021

India’ssmartwatchshipments more than tripled in Q2 2021 compared to the same period last year, with 206% YoY and 18% QoQ growth during the quarter, according to the latest research from Counterpoint’s IoT Service. The growth was mainly driven by affordable offerings, new entrants, changing customer preferences and demand recovery from the lockdown period.

Looking at the overall market, Senior Research Analyst Anshika Jainsaid, “India’ssmartwatchmarket is in a boom phase as more and more people are trying out smartwatches because of the affordability factor. Smartwatches are now replacing traditional watches and complementing smartphone usage as well. Domestic brands are playing a pivotal role in making them accessible by introducing relevant functionality and fitness tracking functions at lower price points. The top three brands in the Indian smartwatch market are domestic and have over a three-fifths share of the total market.

We are estimating double-digit growth for the country’s smartwatch market in the coming period as new vendors are coming with emphasis on the CMF factor (Colour, Material and Finish), thereby offering a wide variety of options to the consumers at different price points.” Around 10 brands have already entered this market since the beginning of 2021.

On domestic production,Jainsaid, “We are also seeing domestic production picking up. Samsung is already producing smartwatches in India since June 2020. Other players like realme, Molife and Timex are also opting for domestic production as it would help reduce the prices as well as dependence on the external market.”

On the price trends and features,Research Associate Harshit Rastogisaid, “We are witnessing many new launches in the sub-INR 5,000 segment, which saw its contribution rising to 83% in the overall market in Q2 2021, compared to 67% in Q2 2020. Due to this, the ASP (average selling price) of smartwatches decreased by 36% in Q2 2021 compared to the same period last year. We are also seeing features like Voice Assistant, Bluetooth Calling, SpO2 and Blood Pressure Monitor trickling down from high-end models to the low-end ones.”
