Global Display Market Dynamics
Driver: Increasing use of LED displays for video walls, TVs, and digital signage applications
LED technology uses light emitting diodes to create lighting solutions, displays, and other applications. The technology is used in a wide range of applications, such as smartphones, TVs, video walls, and digital signage. LED displays have become one of the most used display technologies used across various applications and holds a significant share of the market compared to other technologies. While the LED display industry has matured in recent years, there has been a lack of innovation.
However, one recent breakthrough has been the miniaturization of the components required to build an LED screen. This development has enabled LED screens to become incredibly thin and expand to enormous sizes, making them suitable for use on any surface, both indoors and outdoors. Technological advancements, such as improved resolution, increased brightness capabilities, product versatility, and the emergence of durable surface LEDs and micro-LEDs have also contributed to the increase in LED applications, driving the growth of market.
Restraint: Decline in demand for displays in retail sector due to drastic shift toward online advertisement and shopping
The global electronic commerce industry has experienced tremendous growth in recent years, with millions of people engaging in online shopping. Despite initial concerns about security, consumers are increasingly comfortable buying products online due to faster delivery, easy return policies, and free shipping offered by many e-commerce sites. This trend has had a significant impact on the retail sector, with brick-and-mortar stores experiencing a decline in business due to accelerating online sales.
Digital advertising offers more sophisticated and personalized options for reaching multi-device, multi-channel consumers who spend more time online than before. As a result, the demand for displays in commercial and retail settings has significantly decreased as businesses shift their advertising focus toward online channels.
Opportunity: Micro-LED and mini-LED technologies to carve out new growth avenues for display industry
Micro-LED and Mini-LED technologies are expected to create new opportunities for the display market. Both technologies are designed to provide better picture quality, higher brightness, and greater energy efficiency than existing display technologies such as LCD and OLED. Micro-LED technology can be used for a wide range of applications, such as televisions, smartphones, and wearables.
Micro-LED displays are a next-generation technology that utilizes small, self-emitting LEDs that are less than 100 micrometers in size. Compared to conventional display technologies, they offer several benefits such as improved color accuracy, higher contrast, and faster response times. Additionally, micro-LED displays are more power-efficient and can be used in various applications, including smartphones, laptops, AR/VR devices, and large digital signage. These advantages make micro-LED displays a promising technology, with the potential to revolutionize the display industry.
Challenge: High costs associated with new display technology-based products
In recent years, the display market has been greatly impacted by the consistently decreasing prices of LCD panels. Although there are newer technologies such as micro-LED and quantum dot displays that are more expensive compared to established technologies like LED-LCD. Currently, the prices of LCD panels are lower than OLED panels, which is a result of increased demand for OLED displays from smartphones, smart wearables, and TV manufacturers. Typically, when a new technology is introduced, manufacturers charge a premium, which pushes prices upward and can limit the growth of that market. This, ultimately, has an adverse impact on the overall market.
Display Market Ecosystem
The key players in the display market include Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (South Korea), BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd. (China), LG Display Co., Ltd. (South Korea), AUO Corporation (Taiwan), and Innolux Corporation (Taiwan). These companies not only boast a comprehensive product portfolio but also have a strong geographic footprint.
Micro-LED to register highest CAGR during the forecast period
Micro-LED displays offer several advantages over traditional LCD displays, including improved energy efficiency, better contrast, and faster response times. Micro-LEDs are a promising technology, with a diverse range of potential applications. Notably, the two most significant areas of implementation lie at the opposite ends of the size spectrum. At one end, wearable devices such as smartwatches and near-to-eye (NTE) devices, which feature minute displays, can greatly benefit from micro-LED technology. Conversely, extremely large indoor public displays represent the other end of the size spectrum that can leverage the unique properties of micro-LEDs.
Consumer electronics to account for the largest share of display market during the forecast period
The consumer segment is expected to continue to account for the largest size of the market during the forecast period. The consumer industry includes products such as smartphones, televisions, smart wearables, PC monitors and laptops, and tablets, all of which have significant shares in the global market. The growing demand for organic light-emitting diode (OLED) and micro-LED displays for devices such as smartphones and television sets due to their thinness, flexibility and vibrant colors is a major factor driving the market growth for consumer electronics.
Smartphones to account for the largest share of display market during the forecast period
The smartphone display market accounted for the largest share in 2022 and is expected to dominate the market during forecast period. The growing adoption of OLED and flexible displays in smartphones is a major factor contributing to the market growth. Furthermore, the volume of flexible OLED display panels has been witnessing a significant growth in recent years, subsequently driving the market growth for smartphones. Furthermore, the rollout of 5G is expected to create a surge in demand for smartphones, thereby, driving the market growth for LCD and OLED displays. Moreover, the increasing adoption of smart wearbles is expected to create growth opportunities for market players offering LCD and OLED display panels.
Display Market Share
Asia Pacific to register the highest growth during the forecast period
