Market Trends:
Rising Smartphone and Television Usage to Drive Market Growth
The demand for ultra-high-definition OLED displays is growing rapidly, fueled by the global increase in smartphone penetration. Leading companies like Apple and Samsung are incorporating AMOLED displays in their premium smartphone models, accelerating this trend. Flexible OLEDs offer significant advantages for mobile devices, including enhanced durability and lighter weight compared to glass-based displays, improving performance and reducing overall device weight. These attributes are highly valued by mobile phone manufacturers. For example, in May 2022, LG Display Co. Ltd. showcased innovative OLED solutions, such as OLED.EX and bendable/foldable OLED panels, at the Society for Information Display in San Jose, California. This development is expected to strengthen LG's leadership in the OLED market. In January 2022, LG also announced plans to supply OLED displays for Apple's iPad by 2024, with production scaling up ahead of the initial OLED iPad launch. Additionally, companies are innovating in the smartwatch segment, with products like the Nubia watch, launched in July 2020, featuring a 4.01-inch flexible AMOLED screen with 244ppi pixel density, 960x192 resolution, and eSIM support, to stay competitive.Asia Pacific Region Poised for Significant Growth
The expanding economies of China and India are boosting consumer disposable income, driving demand for high-end electronics such as curved televisions and premium smartphones. According to Chinese government data, per capita disposable income in China rose by 9.1% in 2021 compared to 2020. This shift toward luxury electronics is propelling the flexible OLED market in the region. For instance, in June 2021, Samsung introduced a flexible OLED display designed for wearable technology, capable of adhering to and conforming to the skin. Chinese manufacturers are also scaling up production, with BOE, a China-based panel producer, announcing plans in July 2021 to establish an 8.6G OLED production line for IT applications in Chengdu, China. Furthermore, Apple Inc. has been advancing its foldable smartphone development and expanding its manufacturing presence in India, partnering with Pegatron Corp, Foxconn, and Wistron to assemble premium iPhones, starting with the iPhone 12 in March 2021. These initiatives are making smartphones more affordable in India, further fueling demand and driving the growth of the flexible OLED market in the Asia Pacific.Some of the major players covered in this report include Samsung Display Co., Ltd., LG Display Co., Ltd., BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd., Visionox Technology Inc., Tianma Microelectronics Co., Ltd., Japan Display Inc.
