I   Current Status and Future Perspectives of AMOLED Displays and Major Components Market

• The era transforms from Flexible to Foldable
• The market players must capture next demand by utilizing the potential of AMOLED Displays
• Superiority of AMOLED displays lies in the ability to promote something that generates unique designs of smartphones
• It is possible for a new market to be generated depending on the improved performance of Foldable terminals
• Rapidly growing OLED-TV expected to be mass merchandised by printing method
• True entry to TV market can be achieved by OLED-TV market expansion via printing method 

II   Trend and Perspectives of AMOLED Display Market

• With smartphone demand being matured, the expectation toward growth of small-and-midsize AMOLED displays has receded.
• On the other hand, rapid expansion has shown for OLED-TV due to expansion in its size and use expected.
• Size of the AMOLED displays market is likely to attain double-digit growth once again in 2018
• Expansion of the OLED-TV market may likely to expand the display size in 2023 to be five times larger than that in 2017
• The display size of Large-AMOLED displays shipped in 2019 is likely to exceed the total display size of small-to-midsize displays shipped.
• Adoption of flexible OLED displays to smartphones is likely to increase, because flexible OLED displays are expected to improve the designs of the terminals
• Adoption of In-vehicle AMOLED displays can increase if they can achieve high contrast and be flexible
• The market of AMOLED displays for smartphones is likely to continue expanding but the growth level has been unexpectedly low. It is because of sluggish sales of iPhones and too-high price of those models embedded with AMOLED. 
• POLED displays by LGD for Apple are scheduled to be shipped from 2019
• SDC which enjoys the largest market share is likely to decline the current share in 2019 due to market entry by LGD and BOE
• SDC has forecasted stagnant demand for smartphones and excessive supply, and has reconsidered the investment plan for AMOLED displays
• On the other hand, BOE and LGD have strengthened to proactively acquire more shares of small-to-midsize AMOLED display market.
• Because the demand has shifted to flexible circuits, Rigid OLED display market has shrunk.
