Apple Watch Still Preferred By Dudes; Fitbit Liked By Ladies
PATRICK SEITZ - May 6, 2016 5:54 PM ET

Forget “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus.” The new division of the sexes shows men are for
Apple Watch and women are for Fitbit.

A study of online purchases in the first quarter showed a big gender disparity between the two wearable
device types.

Slice Intelligence reported Wednesday that about 60% of Apple Watch buyers in Q1 were men. But sales
are less skewed than a year ago, when nearly 80% of Apple Watch buyers were men during its first month
of availability.

Meanwhile, women favor Fitbit activity trackers a lot more than men.

In the first quarter, 62% of Fitbit buyers were women, up from 57% in Q1 2015.

The most popular Fitbit device by purchases in the first quarter was the Charge HR, followed by the Alta.
The most popular model Apple Watch is the entry-level Sport version, Slice Intelligence said.
