How many Apple Watches need to sell for it to be a success? I guess core of the question is, how is success defined.
Smartwatches are a new product category and I don't think anyone really know what the potential market is. Apple sold something like 170 million iPhones last year, right? So is that the potential market? I wonder what they are expecting, 10% of that (17 million)? 30% (50 million)?
Is a more reasonable comparison Android Wear and Pebble? I think they both sold in the hundreds-of-thousands last year. Is that enough to be successful? Some analysis have called that success and other failure.
