Apple Watch has proven to be the most popular smartwatch in the world. This was reported in the Counterpoint report.

In the first quarter of 2022, Apple’s share of the smartwatch market reached 36.1 percent – from 35.9 percent a year ago. The closest competitor – Samsung – increased its share from 7.8 percent to 10.1 percent during the year. Huawei took the third place with 7.2 percent of the market.

Below in the open ranking were Xiaomi, Garmin, Amazfit, Imoo and Fitbit. According to analysts, Apple’s share is likely to increase by the end of this year, but Samsung will also increase its market presence. It is stated that global sales of smart watches increased by 13 percent in the first quarter of 2022 compared to last year.

“Apple accounted for more than a third of last year’s total deliveries and is building its influence even further,” said Sujon Lim, Executive Vice President of Counterpoint. According to experts, the popularity of the watch from Apple is due to the high fidelity of iPhone users – especially among young people.
