Opportunities for growth are anticipated due to consumers' growing preference for advanced technologies and the rising demand for display-based smart speakers. Nevertheless, the market faces challenges, including the technological immaturity of voice user interfaces (VUIs) and concerns over privacy and security.

The market is also witnessing significant trends, such as advancements in natural language processing (NLP) and a growing focus on multi-room audio and smart displays.

The global smart speaker market is segmented by type (display and non-display), audio output mode (stereo and surround), portability (wired and wireless), wattage (up to 99W, 100W to 199W, 200W to 499W, 500W to 799W, and more than 800W), distribution channel (online retail and offline retail), and application (personal and commercial usage). The report also provides a competitive analysis at the regional and country levels.

Audio Output Mode: The market is divided into stereo and surround sound categories. In 2024, the surround sound segment is expected to dominate, holding 77% of the market share. The appeal of surround smart speakers lies in features like hands-free interaction and high-fidelity audio, which are particularly attractive to audiophiles. Ongoing innovations in technology are making these speakers more affordable and advanced, driving their popularity. This segment is also expected to achieve the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Type: The market is categorized into display and non-display speakers. The non-display segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share in 2024, due to factors like easier manufacturing processes that lead to lower costs. This affordability makes non-display speakers appealing to a broad consumer base, particularly those who are budget-conscious. These devices excel in voice interaction, offering a seamless hands-free experience ideal for multitasking.

Key players in the market are also launching new non-display smart speakers. For instance, in June 2023, Amazon introduced the Echo Pop in India, an affordable smart speaker with a unique semi-sphere design and Alexa support. Similarly, in January 2023, Apple launched the second generation of the HomePod, featuring advanced computational audio and support for Spatial Audio tracks.

Despite the dominance of non-display speakers, the display segment is expected to register the highest CAGR over the forecast period, driven by their enhanced functionality, improved user experience, and ability to serve as a central hub for smart home devices.

Portability: The market is segmented into wired and wireless smart speakers. In 2024, wireless smart speakers are expected to account for 84% of the market, driven by advancements in voice recognition, the growing popularity of smart home devices, and the convenience they offer. The increasing demand for high-quality audio content, such as music streaming and podcasts, also supports the growth of this segment, which is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Wattage: The market is divided into categories based on wattage. In 2024, the segment for speakers with up to 99W power output is expected to hold the largest market share. These speakers offer superior sound quality, deeper bass, and louder volumes, making them attractive to audiophiles. However, the 100W to 199W segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR, driven by increasing demand in professional settings like offices, retail stores, and event venues.

Distribution Channel: The market is segmented into online and offline retail channels. The online retail segment is expected to lead in 2024, owing to the convenience of browsing, comparing, and purchasing products online. Competitive pricing and the wide range of options available online are also key factors driving this segment’s growth. The online retail segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Application: The market is divided into personal and commercial usage. The personal usage segment is expected to dominate in 2024, accounting for 89% of the market share. The growth of this segment is driven by the hands-free operation and voice control features of smart speakers, which have evolved to perform a wide range of tasks beyond just playing music. The personal usage segment is also expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Geography: Geographically, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to lead the market in 2024, with a 39% share, due to early adoption of advanced technologies and a strong presence of major smart speaker manufacturers. However, the Asia-Pacific region is projected to grow at the highest CAGR of 20% during the forecast period, driven by the rising adoption of advanced technologies, increasing production of consumer electronics, and growing purchasing power parity (PPP) in the region.
