2015 saw the release of a few of the most effective Android Use smartwatches and also left fanatics eagerly anticipating the opportunities for 2016. 2016 showed up and there hasn’t already been almost as much moving forward on the planet of Android Wear as we expected. Approved, Google released Android Put on 2.0 which enhanced functionality and also brought functions that individuals had actually been requesting for. No matter, we’ve just seen one major manufacturer launch an Android Put on device in 2016.
Huawei, LG, as well as Motorola are the ‘Huge 3’ behind Android Use’s continued assistance and also have actually released smartwatches for customers over the last couple of years. This year is going to be a bit different as the 3 companies have actually revealed they will not be releasing any brand-new smartwatches till at least 2017.
At IFA 2016, we were asking yourself if Huawei and also Motorola/Lenovo would bring upgraded variations of the Huawei Watch and also Moto 360, but were left a bit disappointed. ASUS released its newest ZenWatch which runs Android Use, and also Samsung presented the Gear S3 (which does not), yet that was it. And LG launched its latest smartwatch in the initial fifty percent of 2016, yet is choosing to not launch another choice this fall.
The largest reason specified in the record by CNet for these suppliers not releasing new Android Use smartwatches seems to be a little bit of stagnancy. This shows that although there is still passion in Android Use and also smartwatches in basic, it’s not as much as it when was, specifically even after Apple saw a decline of 55% in shipments of the initial generation Apple Watch.
Hopefully points grab in 2017, but it’s all going to rely on the market, and also if individuals proceed to concentrate on fitness trackers/wearables, Android Put on and smartwatches could be dead in the water.
