The global smartwatch market was valued at USD 36.8 billion in 2023 and grew at a CAGR of 8.6% from 2024 to 2033. The market is expected to reach USD 83.97 billion by 2033. The growth of the smartwatch market can be attributed to the rise in disposable income of consumers along with growing interest towards fitness. Smartwatches are equipped with an integrated touchscreen designed for everyday use and a corresponding smartphone application for management and data tracking. As a type of wearable technology, a smartwatch operates as a compact computer. The initial models of smartwatches were capable of performing basic tasks such as mathematical calculations, digital timekeeping, translation, and simple games. However, since their introduction in 2015, smartwatches have evolved to offer functionalities similar to smartphones, including access to mobile applications, a dedicated mobile operating system, and connectivity options such as WiFi and Bluetooth. Additionally, many smartwatches serve as portable media players, allowing users to play digital audio and video files through Bluetooth headsets and access FM radio. These devices also possess cellular capabilities, enabling users to make phone calls.

Market Introduction:

Smartwatches are self-tracking device that is gaining popularity. The watches offer parameters that may have an impact on their health, and it is how they interpret and use the data that determines how they feel. Many smartwatches have begun incorporating medical-grade sensors, such as SPO2 and ECG, enabling continuous health monitoring. Depending on the primary smartphone's pricing, tracking criteria and performance, one can select one of many available smartwatch ecosystems. Smartwatches also enhance well-being by providing access to applications specialized for particular medical conditions, such as diabetes. A smartwatch can help the user keep track of their daily steps, calories burnt, heart rate, and much more. Wearable technology smartwatches are increasingly becoming a necessary piece of medical technology.

The Internet of Things (IoT) wearables facilitate data-driven decision-making and allow users to confide remotely with colleagues. Smartwatches incorporate IoT functionalities that enable the transmission of collected data to a remote server, thus supporting real-time monitoring of individual behaviors. Additionally, IoT-enabled smartwatches can connect with other IoT devices to track users' physical activities. These smartwatches find applications in various domains, including edge analytics, computational offloading, the sports industry, biometric monitoring, and automatic device connectivity. Integrating human components into IoT applications through smartwatches is anticipated to propel market growth further. The COVID-19 pandemic caused manufacturing delays and disruptions in the supply chain, resulting in a slight setback for the consumer electronics sector. The production and availability of smartwatches were particularly affected during the initial two quarters of 2020. Nevertheless, as manufacturing resumed normal operations by the start of the third quarter and consumer demand surged due to remote work and fitness trends, the smartwatch market witnessed consistent growth throughout the pandemic.
