Robust AI Demand Drives 6% QoQ Growth in Revenue for Top 10 Global IC Design Companies in 1Q25, Says TrendForce

12 June 2025

TrendForce’s latest investigations reveal that 1Q25 revenue for the global IC design industry reached US$77.4 billion, marking a 6% QoQ increase and setting a new record high. This growth was fueled by early stocking ahead of new U.S. tariffs on electronics and the ongoing construction of AI data centers around the world, which sustained strong chip demand despite the traditional off-season.

China Subsidy Program Drives 1Q25 Smartphone Production to 289 Million Units, Says TrendForce

12 June 2025

TrendForce’s latest research reveals that global smartphone production reached 289 million units in 1Q25. Although this represents a 3% decline compared to the same period in 2024, production remained relatively stable across major brands. In China, sales in the first quarter were buoyed by the ongoing consumer subsidy program, resulting in a modest uptick in shipments.

Tariff Effects and China Subsidies Soften 1Q25 Downturn; Foundry Revenue Decline Narrows to 5.4%, Says TrendForce

9 June 2025

TrendForce’s latest investigations find that the global foundry industry recorded 1Q25 revenue of US$36.4 billion—a 5.4% QoQ decline. The downturn was softened by last-minute rush orders from clients ahead of the U.S. reciprocal tariff exemption deadline, as well as continued momentum from China’s 2024 consumer subsidy program. These factors help offset the typical seasonal slump.

Growing Demand for Mid-Size Displays Opens New Opportunities for FMM-Free OLED Technologies, Says TrendForce

5 June 2025

TrendForce’s latest report on the display industry reveals that OLED technology—valued for its self-emissive structure, high contrast ratio, and lightweight design—continues to expand its market presence, primarily in small-size applications such as smartphones. However, its penetration into the large-size display segment has been hindered by high production costs and limited capacity. In contrast, the mid-size segment, including monitors, notebooks, tablets, and automotive displays, is emerging as a new battleground, driven by growing consumer demand for premium visual experiences.

Rising Demand and EOL Plans from Suppliers Drive Strong DDR4 Contract Price Hikes in 2Q25 for Server and PC Markets, Says TrendForce

5 June 2025

TrendForce’s latest investigations find that DDR4 contract prices for servers and PCs are expected to rise more sharply in the second quarter of 2025 due to two key factors: major DRAM suppliers scaling back DDR4 production and buyers accelerating procurement ahead of U.S. tariff changes. As a result, server DDR4 contract prices are forecast to rise by 18–23% QoQ, while PC DDR4 prices are projected to increase by 13–18%—both surpassing earlier estimates.
