Global Tablet Touch Panel Market 2016-2020

Outlook of the global tablet touch panel market

Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global market for tablet touch panels to grow steadily at a CAGR of more than 6% by 2020. Much of this market’s growth can be attributed to the rising shipments of tablets worldwide. Functions such as navigation, web browsing, watching videos, and working on documents have limitations on a smartphone due to its smaller screen size. Consequently, tablets are increasingly being adopted across all sectors due to their large screen size. Furthermore, the easy-to-use interface and the high mobility factor of tablets will bolster its demand. This increase in the demand for tablets will foster the demand for tablet touch panels during the forecast period.

In terms of geography, the APAC region is envisaged to be the largest market for tablet touch panels during the forecast period. The high concentration of tablet manufacturers in APAC is a critical factor that will result in this region’s high revenue contribution until 2020. In APAC, many companies and institutions in the retail, healthcare, and hospitality sectors are enhancing their IT infrastructure by incorporating tablets for a better user experience. This augmented incorporation of tablets by enterprises for the enhancement of user experience will result in the strong growth of this market in APAC during the forecast period.

In this market study, analysts have estimated the one glass solution (OGS) segment to be the largest market segment during the forecast period. Factors like its thin form factor, inexpensiveness, and its ability to exhibit superior optical properties will lead to its augmented utilization during the forecast period.
