The Zhitong Finance App learned that Omdia's latest data shows that in the first half of 2026, global XR headset shipments fell 38.7% year on year to 1.9 million units. Although the market acceptance of XR glasses continues to increase, since their market base is still small, the related growth is insufficient to offset the sharp decline in XR headphone shipments. In 2025, the XR market contracted for the fourth year in a row after experiencing a high point during the 2021 pandemic.
