GCC Smartwatch Market to Witness Steady Growth Driven by Gen Z Preferences and Digitalization Trends

NEW YORK - May 8, 2025 - PRLog -- The GCC Smartwatch Market is set for steady expansion over the next six years, with Gen Z's growing preference for customizable, tech-savvy wearables and regional digitalization initiatives acting as primary growth drivers. According to a new research report by MarkNtel Advisors, the market was valued at USD BBB billion in 2024 and is forecast to reach USD CCC billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of around 5.5% during 2024–2030.

Gen Z Shaping the Future of Smartwatches

In GCC countries like Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, and Qatar, Gen Z consumers are fueling demand for fashion-forward, personalized smartwatches. As social media influencers increasingly promote wearables as lifestyle accessories, a 2023 iCuberWire survey reveals that 66% of Gen Z purchases are influenced by online personalities—driving up smartwatch sales in the region.

To meet these evolving preferences, leading brands such as Samsung, Casio, and Apple are integrating cutting-edge features like biometric sensors, AR capabilities, and custom app layouts. These innovations enhance user experience and drive adoption among digitally connected youth.

Government Push for Digitalization Fuels Adoption

Governments across the GCC are making sizable investments to digitalize their economies. For instance, the UAE alone plans to invest over USD 20 billion by 2026 to advance its digital infrastructure. These efforts are creating fertile ground for smartwatch integration in areas like healthcare, personal assistance, and sports monitoring.
