Qualcomm upgraded its top-tier wearable chipsets, with the flagship Snapdragon W5+ claimed to cut power usage in half while offering improved performance and a 30 per cent reduction in unit size on previous designs.

India’s wearables market registered growth in the first quarter of 2022, driven by a surge in demand for watches, new launches and heavy discounts, IDC reported. Shipments increased 20. 1 per cent year-on-year to 13.

Analyst company IDC highlighted increased consumer demand for low-cost watches with connected elements over traditionally more popular fitness-focused wristbands in Q3, a quarter where ear-worn devices continued to dominate the wearables market.

Global spending on wearables, smart home devices, and AR and VR headsets was tipped to reach around $525 billion by end-2025, with broader selection and lower pricing outlined by IDC as some of the key driving factors for the growth.

Se prevé que el gasto mundial en ponibles, dispositivos domésticos inteligentes y visores de realidad aumentada y virtual alcanzará unos 525. 000 millones de dólares (más de 455. 000 millones de euros) a finales de 2025.
