Smart home appliances continue to be hot, and technology giants have entered the market

Microsoft launched a smart speaker at the annual Build developer conference, officially challenging Amazon and Google. Coincidentally, Apple recently teamed up with R&F Group to set up a smart home appliance model room in Beijing, continuing to develop the smart home appliance market in China. In addition to Microsoft and Apple, domestic technology giants such as Huawei and 360 have also made moves in the field of smart home appliances. Tech giants continue to increase smart home appliances, obviously still optimistic about the future prospects of smart home appliances. With the maturity of artificial intelligence technology, smart home appliances are expected to set off a new round of development boom. In 2014, the concept of smart home appliances swept the world, and major Internet giants took action. However, the good times did not last long, and the industrialization dilemma that followed made it difficult for smart home appliances to be implemented, and they only heard the sound and did not see anyone, which was far from the bright prospects they portrayed. The development of smart home appliances is not as good as expected for many reasons, including high cost, low cost performance, and inconsistent standards. This has caused smart home appliances to either become a marketing boo, or stay in superficial intelligence or one-sided intelligence, which is very far from market expectations. For this reason, in the past two years, smart home appliances have cooled significantly, and the attitude of capital has become more rational. However, there is no doubt that smart home appliances are one of the main development trends in the future. So, as artificial intelligence heats up, smart appliances are showing signs of making a comeback. With the recovery of the popularity of smart home appliances, the formation of market consumption concepts, the formation of user habits, and the formation and improvement of the industrial chain, the smart home appliance industry is expected to enter the growth period, and the market scale will gradually expand. According to statistics, in 2016, the size of my country's smart home appliance market reached 60.57 billion yuan, a year-on-year growth rate of 50.15%; it is expected that by 2018, the smart home appliance market will reach 139.6 billion yuan. 2012-2016 China's smart home appliance market scale (unit: 100 million yuan) For smart home appliance companies, in the current market cultivation period, on the one hand, they must continue to polish single products, abandon the theory of over-the-top, and launch more grounded and market-friendly demand for smart home appliances. On the other hand, it is necessary to change the business concept, take active service as the center, and change the product-centered profit model. At present, many home appliances and home appliance products on the market have been intelligentized, but there is still a lack of a core connection point. Once the entrance of smart home appliances is determined, the industry outbreak is just around the corner. To sum up, the prospect of smart home appliances is still promising. With the breakthrough of key technologies and the decline in the cost of components, the price of smart home appliances will be more advantageous, and then embark on a high-speed growth channel, with a broad space for future development.
