Apple Watch Shipments Continue to Decline, Dropping Nearly 20% in 2024
- Apple Watch shipments fell by 19% globally in 2024, marking the second year in a row of declining sales and continuing a downward trend over five consecutive quarters.
- The decline resulted from several factors including absence of a new Watch SE model since 2022 and fewer upgrades in the 2024 Series 10.
- The decline in Apple Watch shipments was largely influenced by a sharp decrease in the North American market, which makes up the majority of global shipments, while India was one of the few regions to experience growth.
- Counterpoint Research analyst Balbir Singh emphasized that for Apple to recover its smartwatch sales, the company should prioritize adding innovative features, updating the design, and releasing refreshed Watch SE and Watch Ultra versions.
- These declining sales suggest Apple must update its product line and improve designs to regain market share amid rising competition and potential 2025 availability issues.
