Smartwatch Shipment Forecast by Brand and Region, May 2025 Update
Overview: Global smartwatch shipments fell 2% YoY in Q4 2024, marking the fifth consecutive quarter of YoY decline in global smartwatch shipments. HLOS smartwatch shipments increased 2% compared to the year-ago period. Among major brands in the HLOS smartwatch market, Apple and Samsung witnessed a YoY decline in shipments by 9 and 18%, respectively. Huawei, Garmin, and Xiaomi drove the growth of the HLOS smartwatch shipments.
By region, a significant slowdown in the growth of India's once-booming local smartwatch brands along with a decline in NAM region contributed to the overall fall of the smartwatch market.
We expect the India market to slightly recover and remain flat in 2025. Due to intense competition and lower margins, fewer new entrants are expected to the market in 2025. OEMs are expected to focus more on higher price segments with more accurate sensors and features to gain the consumer demand
