Apple wearables may overtake iPad and Mac in terms of revenue earned by 2020
Apple wearables segment has seen significant growth in the four years since the launch of the original Apple Watch. The company has launched four generations of Apple Watch since 2015 with plans to launch a new one later this year. Apple Watch has also managed to save a number of lives recently with the inclusion of some extremely useful features. The electronics giant changed the game by adding ECG measurement module on Apple Watch Series 4. Other features include unique features such as fall detection and more. Apple has also taken over the wireless headphone segment with the introduction of its Apple AirPods.
Apple Wearables revenue forecast Analyst Neil Cybart claims that Apple wearable segment will overtake iPad and Mac in terms of revenue soon. In the latest note, Cybart stated that Apple Watch and AirPods products that comprise of the wearable segment accounts to about $16 billion/year. He did note that it was difficult to track the Apple wearables revenue but this segment was growing at an annual rate of anywhere between 55 percent to 60 percent.

Cybart went on to add that the wearables segment “nearly exceeded Services” in the Q3 earnings report of 2019. The report added that Apple seems to be enjoying the “higher” average selling price of Apple Watch and AirPods. The second aspect that seems to be helping the wearables segment is the “continued strong unit sales growth”.
