Huawei, Xiaomi achieve 53% sharp sales hike in Q1 2025 global wearable market

Amid the global brands, Huawei and Xiaomi achieved a sharp hike in the Q1 2025 wearable sales segment. Both Chinese companies captured a huge space in the worldwide wearable segment with an overall shipment increase of 53% year-on-year.

Counterpoint has published the global wearable sales market report for Q1 2025, where Huawei and Xiaomi are the main highlights. While Apple is at the top, these two firms hold the tag of the largest-selling smartwatch brand in the first quarter.

WatchOS maker is at the top due to its growing iOS base. But it is getting tough competition from the Chinese brands following their foothold in the Chinese market.

Huawei ranked second with 53% of the sales score. Xiaomi is in third place with the same points. Samsung appears in the fourth spot with an 18% decline in sales.

The report shows that China has appeared as a strong performer in the Q1 2025 global wearable market. A credit goes to Huawei and Xiaomi for their impressive devices.

Inputs say that China holds a remarkable growth of 37% in the smartwatch shipments due to its growing brands. Anishka Jain, the Senior Analyst at Counterpoint, said:

“Huawei, Imoo, and Xiaomi have not only strengthened their foothold in the Chinese market but also gained traction internationally, intensifying competition for established global players.”

Huawei has recently unveiled the Watch 5 and the Watch Fit 4 series, which have stolen the show this time. The former debuted with the first-ever X-TAP technology that lets you monitor your health with a single touch.

On the other hand, we have the Watch Fit 4 series that took away consumers’ attention with its smart AI features and new Pro-level sports modes. It would be worth seeing what the company has for the second half of this year.
