Up to now, Apple, Google and Samsung are constantly introducing new wearable smart products to compete, integrated wearable market looks like the smoke, fierce competition. Is the whole market really that hot? Many analysts say that as an ordinary intelligent product connected to the Internet and personal devices, wearable smart technology has not achieved breakthroughs in key technologies, and that the sales of wearable products have struggled to match smartphones and tablets, and that the market's vitality is fragile.
Some analysts say the attraction of almost every wearable device is the ability to replace smartphones, provide better data services for fitness, and connect Internet devices to anytime, anywhere. But in fact, some of the more high-end smartphones can fully achieve these features, so in the future, these features will be difficult to attract more consumers.
IDC Wearable equipment analyst Tom said: "If the wearable device is only to solve the problem of interconnection, then this is not enough, and worse, as of the second quarter of 2014, the global smartphone market sales have been slowing down, This situation has led to a lot of technology companies to develop wearable equipment and technology, a time to catch up with wearable equipment development of the fast bus becomes a trend. As a result, many market analysts believe that next year's wearable market will be more intense, Apple, Google, Samsung will be the introduction of wearable equipment, other companies will launch new products.
Harry King, an analyst at the famous market research firm, has predicted that sales of smart watches will reach 120 million by 2018, a big gap from the sales of smartphones and tablets. 2013, global smartphone sales have reached 1 billion, and tablet sales have reached 195 million units.
Harry King also said that a breakthrough in wearable technology might spur the development of the market and that wearable devices with new technologies could have a huge appeal to consumers. But this trend and breakthrough is very difficult, because the limitations of wearable technology is very obvious.
