OLED Monitor Shipments Predicted to Soar by 323% in 2023; 2024 Shipments Expected to Surpass One Million Units
TrendForce reports that the ever-expanding dimensions of OLED products, combined with the ambitious plans of several top-tier brands, mean that 2023 could see OLED monitor shipments hitting a staggering 508,000 units—an astronomical YoY surge of 323%. Come 2024, the OLED landscape will be richer with more diverse product sizes and specifications. Add to that the debut of the 27-inch and 31.5-inch OLED panels by two leading Korean panel makers, and the arena is set for a showdown. Such dynamics are predicted to catapult OLED monitor shipments past the coveted one million unit threshold.
In terms of market share, Samsung is on track for a spirited push in OLED monitor shipments in 2H23, potentially capturing a market share of 27%—echoing LGE's performance. Not to be left behind, Dell is ardently pushing its 34-inch offering, hoping to clinch a market presence above 20%. Meanwhile, ASUS, having strategically positioned itself in the OLED monitor sector recently, is eyeing a market share nearing 9% this year.
Looking at OLED monitor sizes, the narrative for 2023 is headlined by the 34-inch segment, which is forecast to command a 37% market share. The 27-inch group trails closely with an estimated 32%, followed by 49-inch monitors at about 14%. The 45-inch category rounds off the top tiers with a market share of 10%. Casting an eye toward 2024, TrendForce anticipates 27-inch monitors to widen their footprint, emerging as the star player among OLED products. Furthermore, with both Samsung Display and LG Display bolstering the production of their 31.5-inch OLED offerings, this size might just see its market share leapfrogging over 10% in the coming year.

I still think until we start seeing them in the 350-550 range it'll still be a bit niche though. They are also only really good at content consumption/gaming I still use a secondary monitor for web browsing/office type work which makes the cost even higher.
My G8 Oled will be the first one I use exclusively so we will see how that goes.
Next GPU I get it will finally be time...4K OLED here I come :cool: :D
Its a bandaid, but it doesn't fix OLED's fundamental problem, and I simply don't trust any panel Samsung makes anymore, the subpixel layout is almost secondary to me at that point. There hasn't been a single display tech lately where Samsung hasn't been found misleading, misrepresenting or manipulating perception of their display products. Or they don't but there's still some kind of problem with them, especially after warranty runs out. The brand just isn't synonymous to quality, unfortunately, its hit/miss.
Samsung's desperate to compete with OLED and their implementation hasn't fixed a single fundamental issue with the technology either, while it does have more problems.
I mean, if you place such a low bar on durability of a product, sure, everything that shows something more beautiful is better. Great for the top 5%, but pointless as a meaningful technological step forward.
LG's tech to combat retention is certainly better, as results prove (RTings mostly), the color deviation and brightness loss is just far less pronounced over time. Still I'm looking forward to seeing the development in person on my 42 inch C2.
But I just won't, simply won't be worrying about desktop use because my monitor might not be optimal for that use case. So a reasonable price + decent warranty is a must. And text without artifacts.
there’s only 10 weeks left in the year!
Some where shown at gamescom.
So I doubt I'll jump on a bandwagon very soon.
Also, image retention / burn in is still a thing, even with the best panels. It's just the industry is paying more and more influencers telling us it's not a problem / there's something wrong with our usage if we get it...
Oled concern's me as far as image burn is concerned and I've seen some oleds like LG offering and it's subpar brightness was a put off.
I'm happy to wait until the price to performance is better and they fix that image burn because I've friends who where early adapters and now have serious buyer's remorse.
We need proper RGB pixel layout for monitors, LG are close of they remove the W from their OLEDs it would be perfect.
