Complimentary Report

The global smartwatch market has been witnessing sluggish growth since late 2022 due to macroeconomic headwinds and geopolitical conflicts. Meanwhile, the aggressive product shipments of Indian local brands such as Fire Boltt and Noise, based on young demand groups, provided impetus for the overall market to continue to grow. However, at the same time, this also resulted in a decrease in the proportion of High-level OS (HLOS) smartwatches. Nevertheless, Counterpoint expects the share of HLOS-powered smartwatches, which can support the advanced features such as better health monitoring, deliberate fitness tracking, and 3rd party app supporting to grow steadily in future. This Excel report provides shipment forecast for smartwatches running High Level OS by brand and OS until 2027.

After steady and high YoY growth over the past four years, the smartwatch market has been showing some signs of slowing down since the late first half of 2022 due to macroeconomic and inflationary pressures. However, we still believe that there is enough room for more growth if market conditions become favorable.

Reports

The global smartwatch market increased by 5% YoY. The expansion was mainly driven by Apple and Huawei, both introducing new models to boost their shipments. In contrast, Google observed a decline of 52% YoY, despite the launch of the Pixel 2 Watch. By region, India, LATAM, and China region shipments grew by 43%, 38%, and 24% respectively, compensating for declines in North America, Europe, and the rest of Asia. By type, basic smartwatches grew the most, 31% YoY, driven by Indian brands including Fire-Boltt, Noise, and boAt.
The market share of high-price and high-performance HLOS smartwatches stood at 59% in Q4 2023 driven by the good performance of Apple S9 and Ultra 2 along with the introduction of Galaxy Watch 6 and Huawei GT 4 in the second half of 2023. On the other hand, the market share of basic smartwatches increased to 31% from 25%, driven by rapid growth in the Indian market.
The global smartwatch market in January declined slightly compared to the previous month but grew by 1% compared to the same period last year. Except for China, US and India all contracted compared to the previous month, but China grew compared to the previous month thanks to the promotion of e-commerce platforms. In this report, we provide preliminary version sales by Apple Watch model and brand-level monthly sales for Samsung, Huawei, Noise, and Fire-Boltt.
