AnonD-126290, 05 May 2017 It is absolutely shocking .. proving its all marketing and... moreIsn't the wearable market all about marketing and brand name? It basically tells you while Samsung name may resonate in tech, it simply does not carry the same weight when it come to an industry like wearable/fashion.

    xiaomi, 05 May 2017xiaomi doesn't have a watch. They have Mi Band.Actually Xiaomi has two smartwatches (not vounting their bracelets). One is the Amazfit and the other is a thing for kids.

      It is absolutely shocking .. proving its all marketing and brand.. that the best watch maker.. Samsung .. isn't doing well. The gear S3.. and even S2 are absolutely the best smart watches out.. apple could sell an apple.. and it would sell more than other apples lol

          I love my Apple Watch I don't use it just for time but it updates me on the weather and stock changes plus I use it for texting and phone calls when my phone is charging and setting reminders with Siri is easier then pulling my phone out when I'm at work with millions of things to do. For workouts I don't really use the features except to skip songs when I'm lifting. I use one face just for work that shows stock quotes and weather with date and time then for working out the Nike face with heart rate and music skips. And for dressing up going out with my wife I use chrono face it looks classy. I like how you can change the face so you won't get bored with the same thing over and over.

                          Because smartwatches as a whole are not catching on, so this chart isn't exactly saying much.

                            A market share table with 55.5% of "Others"? Great, very informative...

                              Android smartwatch is like Android tablets: underpowered, short battery and no apps.
