“WEARABLES CAN HELP ACCELERATE THE TRANSFORMATION OF DIGITAL COMPANIES BY TRANSMITTING INFORMATION THAT ALLOWS TASKS TO BE COMPLETED MORE QUICKLY.”
However, smartwatches belong to the dominant sector in the wearables category. In fact, smartwatches seized a total of 44.2% of wearables sales throughout the year 2018, even though they are the most expensive devices in the category.
The Apple Watch will continue to be the sales leader, one more year
Currently, the different Apple Watch models of the bitten apple company make up 44.2% of the wearables market. But IDC says that this figure will continue to grow, specifically up to 45.6% in 2019. And, in fact, will continue to rise to 47.1% in 2023.
Undoubtedly, Apple’s smartwatch will lead the sales of wearables as it has done regularly and consistently for years.
