Samsung celebrates huge smartwatch success: Apple has to dress warmly

Although Samsung has been building smartwatches for many years, the South Korean company has not managed to secure a top position. That is changing now. Apple and Huawei lose, Samsung is catching up and is now likely to grow even more.
