Description

The global flat panel display market size is expected to grow from USD 134.2 billion in 2020 to USD 191.4 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2021 to 2027. A flat panel display is an electronic display that displays information such as words, films, photos, or other visual content. Traditional Cathode Ray Tube television sets are much heavier and narrower than flat-panel screens. Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED), Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), Light-Emitting Diode (LED), and other technologies are used in these display displays. Furthermore, it is mostly used in consumer electronic devices such as laptops, tablets laptops, smartwatches, etc. The emergence of advanced technologies offers enhanced visualizations in several industry verticals, including retail, consumer electronics, transportation, sports & entertainment, etc. Flexible flat panel display technologies witness popularity at a high pace.

Moreover, display technologies, such as OLED, have increased importance in smartphones, smart wearables, televisions, and other devices. Also, smartphone manufacturers plan to incorporate flexible OLED displays to attract consumers. Additionally, the market is also in the process of producing energy-saving devices, primarily wearable devices.

Growth in in-vehicle display technology in the automotive industry, rising demand for OLED display devices in smartphones and tablets, and growing use of interactive touch-based devices in the education sector are all important drivers driving the flat panel display market. The expensive expense of new display technologies such as transparent displays and quantum dot screens and the stagnating growth of desktop PCs, laptops, and tablets stifles flat panel display growth.

Furthermore, display technology such as OLED offers several benefits over traditional display technologies, including its lightweight and flexibility, which has given it a competitive edge over other areas. OLED technology is often regarded as a lighter and smaller alternative to LCD and LED systems. Furthermore, unlike LCD screens, OLED panels do not require any backlighting. OLEDs also have the benefit of having a stable performance in the sunshine. Furthermore, the global flat panel display market will likely benefit from emerging flexible flat panel display device applications.

Global Flat Panel Display Market Dynamics

Drivers: High demand for vehicle displays technology in the automotive sector

Nowadays, display gadgets are also used in the automotive industry. In response to this potential, LG Display has announced that it would begin producing a head-up display system for the car sector. LG's vehicle display gadget is a flexible, transparent display that can be wheeled about. The heads-up display may be used in various ways and has a variety of functions to improve your driving experience. Co-driver display, head-up display, center information display, back seat entertainment, and other automobile components are included in the vehicle display. The most popular display technology among the main vehicle manufacturers is OLED.

Restraints: High cost of new display technologies

Rapid technological advancements and upgrades in portable devices such as smartphones have witnessed tremendous growth in recent years. Smartphones are easy to operate, efficient, and cost-effective.
