Based on appliances type, the smart home appliances market is divided into smart refrigerator, smart washing machine, smart air conditioner, smart dishwasher, smart oven, and smart coffee maker. The smart air conditioner market segment held around 25% market share in 2022. Rising global temperatures and increased awareness of energy efficiency are a few factors driving the demand for smart air conditioning systems that can be controlled remotely.
 

Additionally, the integration of AI & IoT technologies in AC units allows for intelligent temperature management and energy savings. The increasing adoption of smart home ecosystems further fuels this development as users seek to centralize the control of their AC systems within their connected homes, enhancing convenience, personalization & comfort. For instance, in March 2023, LG launched its innovative Super Convertible 6-in-1 Ai+ Air Conditioners range, offering users customized automation and unique health & hygiene features. These smart AC units provide versatile cooling options and can transform into different modes to suit user preferences.
 

Based on distribution channel, the smart home appliances market is categorized into online and offline. The offline retail segment held around 70% market share in 2022. Many consumers still prefer hands-on experiences and in-store consultations when purchasing high-value, technologically advanced products such as smart appliances. Additionally, physical retail outlets allow customers to see, touch, and interact with products before making a purchase, building trust & confidence. Retailers are also likely to invest in immersive in-store displays and knowledgeable staff to cater to the increasing demand for smart home technology.
 

For instance, in March 2023, Samsung announced the expansion of its offline footprint with new experiential stores in India. The company’s strategic move to expand its offline presence through 15 new premium flagship stores, termed “Experiential stores,” aims to provide customers with an enhanced shopping experience. These stores will serve as immersive spaces where buyers can not only see and touch the products but also gain in-depth insights into their use cases. Knowledgeable staff and interactive displays will offer customers a comprehensive understanding of the product’s features and benefits.
 

North America led the smart home appliances market with a share of over 30% in 2022 due to increasing investments in smart home appliances, which is propelling consumer demand for automation, energy efficiency, and convenience. Increased awareness of eco-friendly solutions and a tech-savvy population further boost adoption. Additionally, the region benefits from strong infrastructure, IoT advancements, and the presence of leading tech companies, making it a key hub for smart home technology innovation.
 

For instance, in June 2023, Tuya, a global IoT development platform service provider, launched the world's inaugural 5-inch Smart Control Panel Solution designed for smart homes, featuring built-in Alexa functionality and significantly impacting the smart home appliance market in North America. The new solution is primarily aimed at the North American market. This solution enables smart home device manufacturers to create customizable & brand-specific devices.
