Recent Developments

1Q22 Company Highlights

  • Apple managed to grow 6.6% year over year during the quarter thanks to the performance of Apple Watches with the Apple Watch SE showing surprising resilience (over 2 million shipped) for a device that is more than one and half years old. Meanwhile, shipments of AirPods were flat during the quarter as the company faced more competition from low-cost products.
  • Samsung ranked second although its unit shipments dropped nearly 10% compared to last year. Samsung has typically relied on strong smartphone sales to bundle wearables (especially hearables) in many markets. Like Apple, the company was not immune to competition from lower priced vendors and the sheer number of brands offering hearables. The additional competition combined with slowing smartphone sales led to a decline in shipments for hearables. Wristbands also declined along with the overall category. However, the latest Galaxy Watch 4 series continues to remain popular as the company’s watch shipments grew 32.7% during the quarter.
  • Xiaomi’s decline was solely due to the weakness in the wristband category. That said, the company continues to make progress with watches and hearables and employs the same low cost, high value strategy.
  • Huawei retained the fourth position even though overall shipments declined by 10.8% during the quarter. The company remains heavily focused on the local Chinese market although its presence in Europe has grown over time. That said, the Russian invasion of Ukraine has put a lot of downward pressure on the European market so Huawei’s sales into the region could be negatively impacted in the next few quarters.
  • Imagine Marketing once again held its position within the global top 5 due to its large presence in India although they may be experiencing early signs of saturation as growth within hearables declined 3.8% during the quarter. As a result, the company has been growing its presence in the watch category even though overall shipments remain well below 1 million units.
