Product Definition:
In-ear headphones are a type of headphones that fit inside the ear canal. They are often small and discreet, and they provide good sound quality because they are positioned close to the ear drum. In-ear headphones come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and some include noise cancelling features.
Normal In-Ear Headphones:
In-ear headphones have been around for quite some time. However, the introduction of noise cancellation techniques and better sound quality has made them popular among consumers. In-ear monitors are small speakers that sit in the ear canal and provide a stereo or mono signal to the earphones.
Sound Control In-Ear Headphones:
Sound control in-ear headphones are designed to reduce external sound by creating a seal around the ear and reducing noise. The technology is used in many types of headphones, but it's most common in on-ear and over-ear models.
The market for sound control in-ear headphones is growing at a fast pace owing to its increasing demand among sports enthusiasts, music listeners as well as people who work out at the gym frequently.
Application Insights:
The consumer application segment dominated the global in-ear headphones market, accounting for more than 60.0% share of the total revenue in 2017. The growing demand for portable and compact audio devices is expected to remain a prominent factor driving the demand over the forecast period. In addition, rising disposable income among consumers worldwide has led to an increased number of purchases of high-quality earphones by most popular brands such as Sony, Bose Corporation and Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., which are available at affordable prices.
The healthcare segment is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing adoption of noise cancellation technology by various manufacturers including Shure Incorporated, Etymotic Research Inc., Audio-Technica Corporation and Audeze S.A. These companies are focusing on developing products with enhanced features that can cater to specific requirements of medical professionals so as to improve their work efficiency while treating patients or conducting surgeries in hospitals or clinics around the world.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global in-ear headphones market with a share of more than 40.0% in 2017. This is attributed to the high disposable income of consumers, along with their willingness to spend on premium products such as music players and headphones. Moreover, rising awareness regarding hearing loss due to loud noise at work or home is expected to increase product demand over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific is expected to be one of the fastest growing regions owing its large young population that spends a major part of their time listening music through earphones/headphones while doing homework, working out at gym or just sitting idle at home chatting with friends and family members over phone calls or video chats using internet connectivity.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for in-ear headphones from the music industry as a result of their superior sound quality over traditional headphones.
