Western European shipments of connected TV devices fell by 14% in Q2 2022 as the impact on high inflation, weak consumer sentiment and fears of recession led to a drop in consumer demand. Economic headwinds will likely remain in place well into 2023 although we expect a return to single digit growth from Q3 2022 as Smart TV demand rebounds in the lead up to the football world cup and the game console make receives a boost as Sony and Microsoft manage to ramp up production of their next generation consoles.
This report provides quarterly shipment and installed base vendor shares for Western Europe across the three Connected TV Device categories of Smart TVs, IP-enabled Game Consoles and Digital Media Streamers. The report also provides market shares by operating system for Smart TVs and the wider Connected TV landscape. It is a valuable tool for all stakeholders who want to track the Connected TV Device footprint of the world's major Consumer Electronics brands.
