Global market research firm TrendForce held its 2016 IT Industry Forecast Conference at Room 101 of the NTUH International Center in Taipei, Taiwan, on October 15, 2015. A team of senior analysts assembled from TrendForce’s major research divisions – TrendForce, DRAMeXchange, WitsView, LEDinside and EnergyTrend – will share their detailed forecasts on trends in major tech industries for 2016.
Demand has shifted towards products with larger sizes in this year’s LCD monitor market, according to the latest report by WitsView, a division of TrendForce. The share of models sized 23 inches and above in the global monitor shipments has increased to upwards of 40% this quarter. The 27-inch and larger segment in particular has seen the largest increase in its share of the total shipments.
The August shipments of notebook display panels grew 21% over the prior month to 14.43 million units, according to the latest large-size panel shipment report from WitsView, a division of TrendForce. Though the August result was impressive, inventory pressure continues to build and demand has been weak compared with the prior year.
Prices of TV panels continue to drop and are approaching to the products’ cash costs, according to the latest report from WitsView, a division of TrendForce. The pressure relating to business operation is going to multiply for panel makers as they go into the fourth quarter.
The share of In-Cell and On-Cell touch display solutions within the smartphone application is rising fast, according to WitsView, a division of TrendForce. With Japanese panel makers as the leading adopter, the combined share of In-Cell and On-Cell solutions in the smartphone market is expected to hit 40.6% this year and will likely reach 47.8% in 2016, as these technologies will subsequently gain support from other panel makers from South Korea, Taiwan and China.
