revenues will come from Internet connectable devices, according to Strategy
Analytics.


Internet connectivity has become a key feature for the
majority of CE devices, whose global installed base will reach the two billion
unit mark by the end of the year.

still represent a small portion of their respective product segments,
sixty-eight percent of all CE devices sold this year will be connectable to the
Internet.” said Peter King, director at Strategy Analytics.

TV device revenues will total in excess of $95 billion in 2015, representing
more than one-quarter of the overall connected device market.

market values of connected TVs will more than double during the same period.
