Modern Trends

Trend - Brands in the consumer electronics space are using hall sensor technology in controllers and input devices. Hall sensors use a magnetic field rather than a physical analog connection, which means the parts do not physically deteriorate over time, and are more precise.

Insight - Repair costs and additional service fees often dissuade home electronics consumers, as these devices often require professional work and cannot be repaired at home. For this reason, fans of home electronics, such as video games and smart home devices, are gravitating towards products made with durability, repairability, and accuracy in mind. Brands are responding to this pressure by crafting products with long-lasting components without adding too much to the upfront costs.
