Microphone Market Analysis
The Microphone Market size is estimated at USD 2 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 4 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.21% during the forecast period (2025-2030).
The increasing usage of smartphones, smart wearables, tablets, and other consumer electronics drives the demand for microphones. The growing technological advancement and microphone development have improved sound quality and reduced microphones' size.
- The microphone is probably one of the most recognized electrical devices ever developed for widespread use. They guide the army during the war, provide millions of live sports broadcasts, announce details of presidential candidate races, announce the president's passage, and send trillions and trillions of telephone calls. With the proliferation of audio applications and features, microphone technology is becoming more and more critical. Different applications need to consider various factors, from audio quality to water and dust robustness, size, and cost.
Microphone Market Trends
Wireless Microphones is Expected to Hold a Significant Market Share
- The increase in requirement for mobility, high expenditure on semiconductors for wireless devices, advancement in technologies, and introduction of innovative devices are the major drivers that are driving the growth of wireless technology.
- The market is driven by wireless technology due to the increased adoption of smartphones and wireless portable devices, intense investments in research and development for wireless audio devices, and the high adoption of wireless devices in offering infotainment services.
- The industry players are focusing on creating immersive and pristine audio experiences for consumers by developing new microphone designs that guarantee high performance for any device and scale quality audio capture for a wide range of future and current consumer electronic devices, including webcams, smart speakers, health devices, laptop, TVs, wearables, headsets, vehicles, and more.
- In March 2023, RODE announced to launch new Rode wireless ME System, a compact wireless microphone system that is designed to give professional audio for video with minimal effort. The system is compatible with smartphones, computers, and cameras.
- Further, wireless technology is propelling market growth as wireless microphones increase in commercial applications such as call centers, shows, events, etc. According to Amazon Alexa statistics, 53.6 million Amazon Echo speakers were sold in 2020, and the number will grow to 65 million in 2021.
- Wireless microphones also witnessed a significant increase in the gaming industry. The pandemic has boosted online gaming as gamers are looking for easier and more portable mic solutions. This has led gaming-centric companies to release multiple wireless microphones in the market. For instance, in March 2022, Razer launched a new Bluetooth clip-on microphone for streaming that supports six hours of battery life and has a transmission distance of nearly 33 feet.
Asia-Pacific Accounts for the Largest Market Share
- The region witnessed increased investments from smart wearables brands Samsung, Noise, Fire-Boltt, etc., in improving their smartwatch portfolio. The growing number of smartwatches launched in the market now come with an in-built mic for calls on the go. For instance, in May 2022, Fire-Bolttlaunched Fire-BolttTalk 2, allowing users to make and receive Bluetooth calls with the help of the built-in microphone and speakers.
- In January 2023, HARMAN announced the introduction of sound and vibration sensors and external microphone products to enhance the audio experience inside and outside the vehicles. Through this introduction, the company aims to enhance safety and user experience, from detecting glass breakage or vehicle impact to detecting emergency vehicle sirens to listening for exterior speech commands from drivers or traffic controllers.
- Also, in June 2022, Huawei, a Chinese Technology company, announced to launch new Freebuds Pro 2. The new wireless earbuds have triple microphones, dual drivers, and ultra-long battery life. The earbuds have a noise cancellation feature that reduces the ambient noise by up to 47dB with the help of three microphone arrays.
- As users in the region have become more health-conscious, tracking applications have become more attractive. A high-performance microphone with ANC can be combined with a body temperature sensor to provide a convenient solution for tracking health and detecting high temperatures. A TWS headset that can track the wearer's temperature and alert the concerned authorities when the person has a fever provides peace of mind. Taking this opportunity, Infineon has developed an ASIC with an I2C temperature sensor. Combining this with MEMS produces a microphone with temperature-sensing capabilities.
- Further, in May 2022, Neat Microphones, the innovative brand of high-quality USB and XLR microphones from Turtle Beach Corporation, confirmed the retail availability of their latest generation of microphones to international markets. The Neat Microphones team designed it; the same recording expert group founded Blue Microphones. Neat's all-new lineup is headlined by King Bee II – the brand's high-performance XLR microphone and successor to the original award-winning King Bee
