电信日记:一次性可穿戴设备。需要严格的质量检查
消费者并不太在意这个问题，因为这在他们的年度支出中只是小儿科。而且，很多时候他们会在节日期间收到公司或其他礼物。但这一趋势加剧了现有蓬勃发展的电子垃圾挑战，根据各种行业和政府报告，电子垃圾每年增长超过30%。

费萨尔·卡乌萨著
在个人智慧中设备类别-可穿戴设备-无论是手戴式设备还是耳戴式设备都呈指数级增长。这已经成为继智能手机之后的必备设备。然而，大多数平价品牌的质量是一个很大的问号。尤其是国产品牌。
今天,几Noise、Boat和Fire-Boltt等印度品牌不仅在印度建立了令人印象深刻的市场地位但全球范围内的智能设备。但人们仍然担心这些产品的可靠性。对于大多数用户来说，产品的使用寿命不会超过一年。与这些品牌的任何用户交谈，产品的工作时间为6个月到1年。之后，这些产品就变成了电子垃圾。它们甚至无法修复!
消费者并不太在意这个问题，因为这在他们的年度支出中只是小儿科。而且，很多时候他们会在节日期间收到公司或其他礼物。但这一趋势加剧了现有蓬勃发展的电子垃圾挑战，根据各种行业和政府报告，电子垃圾每年增长超过30%。
政府已经在考虑将可穿戴设备纳入PLI方案该公司已开始在智能手机领域取得成果。但是，在采取任何这样的步骤之前，政府必须对产品进行严格的质量检查，特别是印度品牌的产品，否则他们将在对质量要求严格的全球市场上被击败。例如，在欧洲，等等。这不会帮助PLI计划在这一类别中收获太多。
读也
就产品的可靠性和质量而言，当时的印度手机品牌也做得很好。除了少数国际品牌外，大多数手机无论来自哪里，都提供了相似的体验、质量和寿命。但今天，当我们比较全球、中国和印度品牌在可穿戴设备领域的产品质量时，差异是相当明显的。同意他们在某些情况下以不同的价格区间运作，但这绝不是制造劣质产品并最终增加该国电子垃圾的正当理由。
在我们欢庆的时刻一些印度品牌在可穿戴设备领域的崛起在美国，是时候反思整个价值链，引进可靠和高质量的产品了，这样它们就能长久使用，兑现承诺，不会加剧电子垃圾问题。当整个世界都在围绕可持续性和环境展开讨论时，印度的可穿戴设备市场也需要效仿，创造一个蓬勃发展的可持续产业，不仅为他们带来利润，也为国家带来骄傲。我们确实希望看到一个印度可穿戴设备品牌在全球舞台上获得可持续发展和尊重。

By Faisal Kawoosa<\/strong>Among the personal smart devices<\/a> category \u2013 wearables \u2013 both wristables and earables are growing exponentially. These have become a must-own device after smartphones. However, the quality of the majority of the brands in the affordable segment is a big question mark. Especially of the home-grown brands.
Today, few Indian brands like Noise, Boat and Fire-Boltt have built impressive market standing not just in India<\/a> but globally in this category of smart devices. But the concern remains about the reliability of the products. For most of the users, products don\u2019t last for more than a year. Talk to any user of these brands, the products work between 6 months to 1 year. After that the products become e-waste. They are not even repairable!
<\/div><\/div>These brands primarily operate in the affordable segment. Over 90% of the purchases of these devices happen in the price range of Rs 500-Rs 3,000. It doesn\u2019t pinch on the pocket for majority of buyers. A user not only gets very bad experience and sometimes some features work inaccurately, like the steps counter. Eventually the product dies in less than a year.
Consumers are not very mindful of this issue as it\u2019s a small ticket item in their annual spending. Also, many times they get them as corporate or other gifts around the festive season. But this trend is adding to the existing burgeoning e-waste challenge, which is growing over 30% annually as per various industry and government reports.
There is already a proposal under consideration by the government for bringing wearables under the ambit of PLI scheme<\/a>, which has started showing its fruits in the smartphone category. But, before taking any such step, the government must enforce stringent quality checks on the products, especially of the Indian brands, or else they will be beaten in the global markets which are rigorous about quality. For instance, in Europe, etc. That will not help the PLI scheme to reap much in this category.

<\/div><\/div>The wearables market is experiencing what the mobile market was witnessing around 2010-12<\/a> when the market was flooded with inferior quality China brands and products were very unreliable and hazardous. There was rarely concept of SAR value, etc. in those brands. Eventually, the Indian consumers disliked them, and they were wiped off the market paving way for the China OEMs to enter which of course brought in some credibility and have been working on building great experiences for the consumers. Today China OEM smartphones<\/a> are no less than their global counterparts.

Even the Indian mobile brands back then did a good job when it comes to reliability and quality of the products. Barring a few global brands, most of mobile phones irrespective of their origin delivered similar experience, quality, and life expectancy. But today, when we compare the product quality of global, Chinese, and Indian brands in the wearables category, the difference is quite visible. Agreed that they operate in some cases in different price segments, but that in no way justifies creating inferior products and eventually adding to the e-junk in the country.
At a time when we rejoice and celebrate the rising of a few Indian brands in the wearables category<\/a>, it's time to introspect the entire value chain and bring in reliable and quality products so that they last long, deliver what they promise and do not add to the e-waste problem. When the entire world is driving conversations around sustainability and the environment, the wearables market in India also needs to follow the same and create a thriving and sustainable industry that not only brings profits to them but pride to the country as well. We do want to see an Indian wearables brand in the global arena with sustainability and respect.

<\/a><\/div>DoT removes 5 products from its prior mandatory testing list<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/a><\/div>5G: Enhanced mobile broadband to be first use case in India, enterprise pick up 1-2 years away<\/h4><\/a><\/div><\/div>
Even the Indian mobile brands back then did a good job when it comes to reliability and quality of the products. Barring a few global brands, most of mobile phones irrespective of their origin delivered similar experience, quality, and life expectancy. But today, when we compare the product quality of global, Chinese, and Indian brands in the wearables category, the difference is quite visible. Agreed that they operate in some cases in different price segments, but that in no way justifies creating inferior products and eventually adding to the e-junk in the country.
At a time when we rejoice and celebrate the rising of a few Indian brands in the wearables category<\/a>, it's time to introspect the entire value chain and bring in reliable and quality products so that they last long, deliver what they promise and do not add to the e-waste problem. When the entire world is driving conversations around sustainability and the environment, the wearables market in India also needs to follow the same and create a thriving and sustainable industry that not only brings profits to them but pride to the country as well. We do want to see an Indian wearables brand in the global arena with sustainability and respect.
