The surge in preference for portable speakers plays a crucial role in driving the wireless speakers market. This is primarily due to the affordability and convenience offered by wireless speakers. Moreover, the increasing prevalence of smartphones has contributed to a growing preference for quick and smart functionality in the form of portable wireless devices, further boosting the use of portable wireless speakers. According to a report from Comscore, Inc., a US-based media measurement and analytics company, in 2021, nearly 50% of internet users owned at least one smart speaker, marking the highest level of smart speaker ownership.

The increasing demand for smartphones is expected to propel the wireless speakers market's growth in the future. Smartphones, with their combination of cellular phone functionality and various features such as internet connectivity, multimedia capabilities, app-based applications, and touchscreen interfaces, serve as primary audio sources for wireless speakers. Users can stream music and other content to these devices through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connections. For instance, a report by Uswitch Limited, a UK-based financial conduct authority, revealed that starting in 2022, the UK witnessed a 3.8% increase (around 2.6 million) in mobile connections, reaching 71.8 million. By 2025, it is projected that 95% of the UK's population (approximately 65 million people) will possess smartphones. Hence, the growing demand for smartphones is a key driver for the wireless speakers market.

Signal interference with other devices poses a significant challenge for the wireless speakers market. Many wireless devices operate on the same radio waves and frequencies as wireless speakers, increasing the likelihood of signal disruption and a decline in sound quality. Dropped signals can impact either the transmitter or the receiver of wireless speakers, affecting the overall listening experience. Consequently, companies in the wireless speakers market are focusing on implementing exclusive connectivity with specific devices to mitigate signal interference, albeit at an increased cost. For example, Apple offers Airplay speakers utilizing proprietary wireless multimedia technology, connecting exclusively to Apple devices or iTunes, resulting in a higher price. However, other vendors have not adopted similar strategies, as such exclusive connectivity tends to elevate product prices.

The wireless speakers market is witnessing an emerging trend with the integration of advanced technologies such as AI-assisted devices. This is primarily attributed to the user-friendly nature of AI-enabled wireless speakers, offering features such as voice recognition for controlling speaker functions through voice commands. AI-based wireless speakers utilize cloud technology, providing a stable platform for data storage and quick access. Examples of wireless smart speakers with AI technology include Google Home Max, Amazon Echo Dot 3rd Gen, and JBL Link 10. Gartner, Inc. estimates that end-user spending on virtual personal assistant (VPA)-enabled wireless speakers will reach $3.52 billion by 2021.

The Federal Communication Commission (FCC), an independent agency of the US government, regulates interstate communications, including those in the wireless speakers market. Manufacturers in this market must obtain certification from the FCC to launch their products, with mandatory safety testing as part of the certification process. The FCC has established a bandwidth limit of 600 MHz for wireless devices, exceeding which results in disqualification of FCC certification. Therefore, FCC regulations on interstate communications play a vital role in overseeing companies involved in the wireless speakers market.

Key players in the wireless speaker market are intensifying their focus on introducing portable speakers, exemplified by products such as the SRS-XV800 and the SRS-XB100, to enhance revenue generation. Both the SRS-XV800 and SRS-XB100 are portable speakers equipped with Bluetooth connectivity. For instance, in May 2023, Sony Electronics Inc., a US-based electronics company, unveiled two new wireless speakers – the SRS-XV800, designed to deliver loud and clear sound for various purposes such as hosting parties or watching content, and the SRS-XB100, a compact wireless speaker delivering powerful and clear sound with exceptional portability.
