Foldable Display: An Overview

Flexible display technologies like OLED and AMOLED have been propelling the market for foldable displays. This is accompanied by increased demand from consumers for multi-use devices that can have a bigger screen size while still being portable. The segment initially began with foldable smartphones but now includes applications in laptops, wearables, tablets, and automotive applications. Innovation leaders: Samsung, Huawei, LG Display, and BOE Technology Group are in pole position in researching and developing higher durability, but at a reasonably lower cost of production. Though production costs are extremely high, and durability is yet to be ideal in use, continuous progress, and growing consumer interest in premium, multifunction devices are expected to propel the folded display market in significant ways for over a decade. The market share holder in this market is Asia-Pacific, due to the powerful manufacturing capacities and because of the increasing adoption of cutting-edge devices, followed by North America and Europe, which also exhibit increasing growth.

According to the Univdatos Market Insights, increasing consumer demand for multi-functional devices, advancements in OLED and AMOLED technology, heavy investments from OEMs, and expansion of 5G networks will drive the global scenario of the Foldable Display market. As per their “Foldable Display Market” report, the global market was valued at USD 4,817.2 Million in 2023, growing at a CAGR of 27.4% during the forecast period from 2024 - 2032.

Foldable Display Overview in APAC

In terms of geographical split, the largest proportion of the foldable display is dominated by the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, mainly on account of its status as a global electronics manufacturing hub and innovation center. Flexibilities of a foldable display are further diversified based on its screen curvature, e.g., in terms of convex and concave types. Thus, to cater to the demand for such flexibilities, players of strong manufacturing infrastructures, such as South Korea, China, and Japan, are positioned closely in the APAC region, while major players, including Samsung Display, LG Display, and BOE Technology Group, are headquartered in this region, with the former having been the key developers of flexible OLED and AMOLED technology. This generates strong demand for premium, high-end devices in the countries and has further accelerated due to the widespread adoption of 5G technology. Besides this, the region has developed a strong supply chain and has been working on significant R&D initiatives, making foldable displays a fast-growing area among applications such as smartphones, laptops, and automotive.

Foldable Display Market in China

China is the hub of foldable display innovations and productions; in fact, several major manufacturers are based in China. Companies such as BOE Technology Group, Visionox, and Royole Corporation in China stand atop developing flexible OLED and AMOLED technology. Such companies are not just producing foldable displays for internal markets but also are key suppliers to global manufacturers, so China forms integral parts of the supply chain for foldable devices internationally.

Key Factors Driving China’s Market Leadership:

1.      Manufacturing Capacity: China houses the largest and most advanced manufacturing infrastructures for display technologies. Companies like BOE Technology have ramped up their flexible displays' production speed, which they declared to be mass-producible; therefore, this makes the cost of producing them relatively low. It has thus catapulted China to become one of the primary players in the quest by regions to rise and fill the rising global demand for foldable displays.

2.      Government Supports: The government of China has been very proactive in the support process towards developing advanced display technologies. Several subsidies, incentives, and other benevolent policies announced by the Chinese government encouraged domestic firms to invest in R&D so that they could compete on the global stage with established players like Samsung.

3.      Technological development: For the most part, BOE Technology and Visionox are succeeding in pioneering OLED and AMOLED technologies. There has been exceptional strength improvement, and increased brightness and energy efficiency in flexible displays, thus indicating that these may suit a more wide range of applications like smartphones, laptops, and automotive displays.

4.      Domestic Demand: China is currently one of the world's largest consumer electronics markets. With consumers in this country fast moving towards high technology, demand for premium devices has increased rapidly, thus ensuring very high growth in domestic demand for foldable displays. This means that Chinese firms have an already developed market into which they can test and perfect their technologies before spreading them to an international audience.

5.      Strategic partnerships: Chinese display companies have forged partnerships with top electronics companies around the world and are supplying foldable display panels to many of the world's leading brands. For example, the world's two biggest phone makers, China's Huawei and Xiaomi, have integrated foldable display technology into their high-end flagship models. China has led the world once again in folding screens.

6.      R&D Investment: Chinese companies are highly investing in research and development to improve foldable display technology. This includes improvements in hinge mechanisms, screen resistance, and the reduction of the "crease" that manifests in foldable displays. Companies like Royole Corporation were one of the pioneers in foldable displays, and their innovations keep China at the top of the technological race.
