Share This Post
Rising inflation, geopolitical conflicts, fears of recession and the tightening squeeze on the cost of living as a result of the ongoing energy crisis continue to negatively impact consumer sentiment across large parts of the world which in 2022 was still leading to reduced demand for big ticket electronics items such as Smart TVs in most markets. This report provides an update to our November 2022 Smart TV forecast and includes a downwards revision of our expectations for the market in 2023.
