<p>A new report from IDC (http://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=prUS41996116) estimates that the Apple Watch continues to the best-selling smartwatch with about 40% marketshare but barely scrapes into the 5 top selling wearables list with 1.1 million unit sales, as the market is dominated by cheap fitness bands, a trend seen since the beginning of this year (https://9to5mac.com/2016/05/16/apple-watch-sales-smartwatch-q1-fitbit-xiaomi/).</p>
<p>Apple’s wearable was outsold by rising fitness tracker sales from Fitbit, Xiaomi and Garmin. Apple was the only vendor to see a drop in sales compared to last year; Apple is predicted to have sold 71% fewer Apple Watches in the third quarter of this year than what it achieved in the same period in 2015.</p>
