LONDON, Nov. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Omdia’s latest Smartphone display market tracker indicates that LTPO-AMOLED for smartphones will grow by 94% year-on-year (YoY) by the end of 2022 and will maintain growth levels of 25% YoY in 2023 in sluggish smartphone display market.
In 2022, Smartphone display demand is decreasing to 1,425 million that fall by 18% YoY due to the reaction to the excessive procurement of display in 2021 in anticipation of a post-COVID-19 market recovery, and the cooling of consumption in global inflation .

In terms of overall smartphone display revenue in 2021 and 2022, Samsung ranked first, BOE second, and LG Display third. The revenue share of total Korean makers is expected to increase from 58% in 2021 to 64% in 2022, while the share of total Chinese makers is expected to widen from 33% in 2021 to 29% in 2022.
The smartphone display market is expected to increase slightly to 1,462 million (grow 3% YoY) in 2023. Total TFT LCD shipment levels at 816 million (down 2% YoY) and total LTPS-AMOLED is expected to increase to 460 million (grow 4% YoY), while only LTPO-AMOLED is expected to enjoy shipment growth of 186 million and 25% growth YoY.
