The Hope of Samsung in Smartwatch Market
Samsung is in pursuit with 2 million shipments in Q2. That’s more than double the number from the same period last year. It still has a way to go, but Strategy Analytics believes the Galaxy Watch Active2 and other new models will help it expand its market presence.
Samsung also recorded impressive market share growth, going from 10.5% to 15.9% on 2 million units shipped. Much of Apple and Samsung’s market share growth appears to be at the expense of third-place Fitbit, which saw its share decline from 15.2% to 9.8%.
