The price has reduced to $250-$300 in 2016. This significant decline in the cost of wearable devices will increase the adoption rate of these devices both in developed and developing countries. Initially, the adoption of these devices was confined to developed countries because of the high cost. However, with the decline in cost, vendors have shifted their focus to developing countries to increase their revenue and market base. According to the report, growing popularity of entertainment devices among youth will be a key driver for market growth.

Therefore, the increased adaptability of these entertainment devices has increased the growth of the market. Further, the report states that high power consumption of devices will be a challenge for the market.
