Flexible Display Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges

The increased R and D investments is notably driving the flexible display market growth, although factors such as reduced shelf life of products may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the flexible display industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.

Key Flexible Display Market Driver

One of the key factors driving growth in the flexible display market is the increased R and D investments. The majority of the market revenue comes from the R and D divisions of the end-users, as the technology is yet to be commercialized on a large scale and is still in the development stages. Owing to extensive developments in the smart devices market since 2014, corporations have been investing in R and D of hardware devices to come up with screens or displays that are more durable, of better quality, and cost-efficient. Companies such as LG and Samsung have made R and D investments in South Korea and Taiwan to speed up the availability of new flexible displays with many new features so that they can be used in new hardware devices. Many companies have entered into partnerships with universities to speed up the innovation of flexible displays. Such factors are expected to propel the growth of the market in focus.

Key Flexible Display Market Trend

The advent of conceptual flexible display products is a flexible display market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. As flexible displays become more mainstream products, different conceptual level products will be prototyped. Technology companies such as Samsung, Microsoft, and Apple are innovating and conceptualizing products that are wearable and more integrated with human life. Microsoft and Sony are prototyping screen consoles for their gaming products that provide a more appealing experience for gamers. Sony and Samsung have launched curved screen TVs and are now prototyping these TVs with flexible screens. The wearables industry has conceptualized different products using flexible displays and propelled the growth of the flexible display market.

Key Flexible Display Market Challenge

The reduced shelf life of products will be a major challenge for the flexible display market during the forecast period. Although flexible displays solve many problems associated with traditional displays, they have their own set of disadvantages. Owing to the competition in the market, manufacturers keep coming up with innovative products supporting advanced technologies. As a result, the older versions take a hit in the market as users get attracted to new products available in the market. These versions of the existing products maintain the competition in the market but make the already existing versions obsolete somewhere. As the technology is emerging, the products based on this technology are expensive. Additional investments for technology upgrades will negatively affect vendors' profitability and, in turn, the growth of the market.

This flexible display market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2022-2026.
