Wrist-worn wearables shipment went up 28.8% in Q2 2019, according to a new
report by International Data Corporation (IDC) Worldwide Quarterly Wearable
Device Tracker. During this period 34.2 million units of these devices,
which include smartwatches, basic watches and wrist bands, were shipped,
said the report. The top 5 companies – Xiaomi, Apple, Huawei, Fitbit, and
Samsung – continued to push forward with new products and promotional
campaigns during the quarter, collectively capturing 65.7% of the market, an
almost 12-point gain from last year.

“Health is now at the forefront for these devices since companies have
started providing actionable insights and prescriptive measures for end
users,” said Jitesh Ubrani, research manager for IDC Mobile Device Trackers
. “Beyond health, mobile payment is also starting to become a mainstay as
roughly two out of five wrist-worn wearables now include NFC, and many more
simply use QR codes to complete transactions.”
Xiaomi, known for its MI Band series, maintained the top position thanks to
its latest Mi Band 4. The company, which focuses almost exclusively on wrist
bands, lured new customers with its low-cost fitness trackers. While China
is its biggest market, Xiaomi is still prioritizing to expand beyond China,
the IDC report states.
Apple came in second in terms of units sold, but the company outpaces all
others in terms of dollar value as the average selling price (ASP) for an
Apple Watch was $448 during the quarter. The company’s newly announced
Apple Watch 5 should help it maintain its leadership in the smartwatch
market. IDC anticipates shipments of the Apple Watch to grow by 10.8% by the
end of 2019 and capture 38.9% of all smartwatches shipped during the year.

In the third place was Huawei, a company aimed at capturing the mass market
with the Huawei brand and a younger audience with the Honor brand. The new
report shows Huawei focused on the Chinese market during the quarter,
growing its share, rather than prioritizing international expansion as it
had in past quarters.
Wristband market pioneer Fitbit ranked fourth place in the report. Although
sale of its smartwatches declined, Fitbit was able to manage overall growth
due to the popularity of the newly launched Inspire wristbands.

Samsung rounded out the top 5 and achieved the highest growth rate amongst
the top 5 due to the introduction of its low-cost wrist bands, the Galaxy
Fit and Galaxy Fit e, and the popularity of the Galaxy Watch.
“Glancing at data – like notifications, fitness stats, and even checking
the time – remain the popular use case, but to be able to interact with the
device via smart assistants, scroll easily through data with the rotating
bezel like Samsung’s smartwatches, or connecting to smart home applications
and devices raises wrist-worn wearables’ utility. Layer on top of this the
growing market for applications on smartwatches, and the value of these
device increase further,” said Ramon T. Llamas, research director,
Wearables.
