However, as conversational AI becomes more natural, users are expected to increasingly view AI as a proactive digital companion rather than just a reactive tool.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With smartphone makers quickly adopting on-device GenAI models and apps, end-user spending is projected to grow to $393.3 billion in 2026, which is a 32% increase from 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gartner Forecasts 100% Adoption of GenAI in Premium Smartphones by 2029<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gartner predicts that by 2029, all premium smartphones will include GenAI capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Atwal added, \u201cThe broad adoption of NPUs in smartphones will enable GenAI models to run faster and more efficiently, encouraging users to upgrade to the latest hardware for optimized experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gartner also forecasts that by 2025, almost all premium GenAI smartphones will have NPUs, and 41% of basic GenAI smartphones will also feature them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By 2027, on-device NPUs capable of exceeding 40 tera operations per second (TOPS) are expected to become standard in premium GenAI smartphones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These NPUs will allow complex multimodal AI workloads to be executed in real-time without consuming excessive power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbctv18.com\/technology\/ai-smartphones-growth-qualcomm-ceo-19497444.htm\">Image Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Global end-user spending on generative AI (GenAI) smartphones is expected to reach $298.2 billion by the end of 2025, according to Gartner, Inc.
