Screen Technology Advances Aiding Smartphone Display Market Growth

The smartphone display market was valued at $50.29 billion in 2017 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period from 2017 to 2026. It’s no secret that smartphone design has come a long way since the first cell phone was launched decades ago. In 2001, Samsung released the SPH-1300, which marked the beginning of a new era in smartphones and a new chapter in mobile technology. Since then, displays have evolved, and technological advances have led to flexible screens that allow for sleek designs and improved battery life. One factor contributing to this growth is the increasing sales of smartphones worldwide; for instance, worldwide smartphone sales in 2017 grew 2.7% over 2016 figures. In 2017, there were 1,536.5 million units sold versus 1,496 million units sold in 2016.

Furthermore, technological advances in screen technology have been another major factor contributing to the growth of the smartphone display market. Today, smartphones with 4K screen resolution are available on the market and are usually found on flagship models. Moreover, full-screen smartphones have gained immense popularity in recent years, further contributing to the growth of the smartphone display market.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis:

COVID-19 has been a significant event for the global smartphone display industry. The crisis has resulted in a drop in smartphone demand, leading to a drop in overall demand for mobile devices. This decrease in demand has led to a decrease in the production of display panels.

The impact of COVID-19 on the smartphone display market has been felt across all regions and countries. For example, smartphone sales have recorded a significant drop in the US since January 2018. In Europe, the smartphone market decreased by roughly 30% over the same period (January 2018 to June 2019).

While some regions have seen declines due to COVID-19-related issues, others have seen an increase due to the fact that consumers are choosing more expensive models with more durable displays (such as OLED displays).

Market Synopsis

An Increasing Number of Smartphones Will Adopt AMOLED Screens in the Coming Years

In 2017, the LCD segment led the overall smartphone display market worldwide in terms of value. The cost to manufacture and procure an LCD screen is comparatively cheaper than that of an AMOLED. This factor makes LCDs common on most budget smartphones. However, with constant advancements taking place in LED display technology, the market share of the same is expected to increase in the coming years. The fact that AMOLED screens perform better in terms of battery consumption is expected to play a crucial role in their increased adoption in future smartphones. However, the Micro-LED displays segment is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years due to its lighter weight and thinner form factor compared to LCDs and LEDs, as well as its superior brightness levels over all other display types—which makes it ideal for use outdoors during bright sunlight conditions.

R&D Activities to Remain on the Center Stage for the Players Operating in the Smartphone Display Market

Research and development activities are one of the most common strategies adopted by smartphone display manufacturers. These activities are directed toward improving existing products and developing new ones. For instance, Samsung recently announced a bendable and unbreakable screen for smartphones. The new display uses plastic instead of glass and is therefore not prone to shattering or cracking. Moreover, the display passed the break test when dropped from a height of 4-6 feet. Another recent development witnessed in the smartphone display area is the breakthrough smartphone makers achieved in embedding fingerprint scanners on screens. Vivo and Xiaomi were among the first companies to launch this new technology. A, a Taiwanese electronics company, created a 5-inch AMOLED display that can bend 1.5 million times without breaking.

Asia Pacific to Remain the Hub for Smartphone Display Manufacturing

The Asia Pacific region was the largest regional market for smartphone displays worldwide in 2017, and the region is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. One of the most prominent factors aiding this growth is the large number of smartphone display manufacturers headquartered in the region, including Samsung, LG Display, Japan Display, Sharp, and BOE. In order to address the growing demand from smartphone makers, manufacturers have been building new plants. For instance, Chinese manufacturers such as China Star Optoelectronics Technology and BOE have built plants for OLED panels in order to catch up with South Korea’s Samsung Electronics. Furthermore, the Chinese government has been instrumental in providing funds, and plants manufacturing LCD and OLED panels are both eligible for billions of dollars in subsidies, which is a significant factor complementing the Asia Pacific smartphone display market growth.
