Smart speaker sales are soaring. There’s no denying that. But new research from Parks Associates helps put that data into context. The firm projects that total sales of smart speakers with digital voice assistants will hit 64 million in 2022. That’s a large number, especially considering there’s an estimated install base of just 118.5 million as of the end of 2018.
"Voice is emerging as a key complement to smart home device adoption and ownership, as it provides a simple method of interaction and creates opportunities for a centralized user interface and interoperability among multiple devices," Dina Abdelrazik, Research Analyst, Parks Associates, said in a statement. "The next step will be integration of voice among multiple device categories, which will help to alleviate smart home fragmentation."
