According to a Statista survey in 2017, 88 percent of the U.S. respondents stated that they used a PC/laptop computer, either professionally or personally. Smartphones and tablets followed in second and third places, being used by 75 and 48 percent of the respondents respectively.
The hottest gadget in recent years is undoubtedly the smart speaker. Since Amazon introduced its pioneering Echo speaker into the consumer market in 2015, the smart speaker has gained increasing popularity among consumers. As the market becomes more dynamic after Google and other companies launched their own smart speaker products, shipment figures went up dramatically, from 7.2 million in 2016 to a projected 36.6 million units in 2019. As of the first quarter of 2019, the ownership rate of smart speakers among U.S. broadband households stood at 31 percent.
