Apple’s technology is sturdy and has proven it time and time
again. The company has come out on top in the wearable tech market and has solidified
its position the tech company, Fitbit is facing some antitrust issues.
The issues come over the concerns of Google acquiring Fitbit
for $2.1 billion and potentially gain access to a large amount of health and
fitness data. The tech giant has stressed about how the acquisition is much
more about the device itself rather than the data.
Fitbit is seeing its position being weakened for the past
few years as new competition makes it very hard for the tech company to keep
up. Other tech giants such as Apple has exceeded the technological advancement
embedded in its wearable tech. Other than that, Samsung and a few other Chinese
companies have also joined the party and have made it even harder for Fitbit to
keep up.
In 2019, Fitbit was ranked as the fifth-largest wearable
tech brand in the world, where companies like Huawei and Samsung came above it.
