Digital twin (DT) is at the forefront of the Industry 4.0 revolution facilitated through advanced data analytics and the Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity. With this research, we intend to explore the applications of DTs in the consumer electronics (CE) industry. This study delves into different realms within the consumer electronics sector to explore how DT technology could be beneficial while considering the potential limitations. Some CE fields that could benefit from DTs include product design and development, predictive maintenance, personalization, virtual user manuals and training, product performance optimization, remote support and troubleshooting, supply chain optimization, and sustainability. This research also focuses on various aspects of the crucial role played by consumer electronics in implementing DTs in the industry, including hardware integration, data collection methods and establishing reliable connectivity, software development, standards and interoperability, user experience and interaction design, data security and privacy, and feedback-driven improvements. It also discusses challenges like data accuracy, complexity, cost, limited scope of representation, data privacy and security concerns, user engagement and adoption, and integration and compatibility issues faced while implementing this technology.
