Smart TVs: Today’s center of video aggregation and opportunity —Industry Voices: Erickson

Smart TVs are viewed as must-have devices by an increasing number of US homes, and they are the only streaming video product category to have risen in adoption continuously throughout the pandemic. Households in the United States today possess a broad range of connected devices capable of showing video, but there is a clear pattern of devices preferred for video consumption. According to Parks Associates, smart TV adoption in broadband homes remained consistent in 2021 at around 55 to 56%, while streaming media players lost ground in the third quarter of 2021. We will continue to see this trend in 2022 and beyond.
