OLED Monitor Shipments to Reach 1.44 Million Units in 2024, Marking 181% YoY Growth

[TheLostSwede]

TrendForce reports that the OLED monitor market is set to receive a boost with the introduction of new 31.5-inch OLED models. Panel makers are focusing on product differentiation and improved specifications, while several gaming brands are aggressively launching new models to capture market share. OLED monitor shipments are projected to reach 1.44 million units in 2024—representing YoY growth of 181%—with strong growth expected to continue in the coming years.

Samsung is expected to secure the top spot owing to strong sales of its 49-inch OLED monitors and a steady pipeline of new product releases. Its 2024 market share is forecast to expand to 31%. LGE, leveraging ample panel resources and continuous product line expansion, is poised to take second place with a projected 19% market share.




TrendForce notes that ASUS, with its focus on high-end products, is set to expand its OLED monitor shipments significantly in 2024. The brand is expected to closely compete with Dell for third place in the market.

MSI's aggressive expansion into new sales channels has resulted in substantial growth in overall monitor shipments, with the company recording the highest growth rate across all categories. OLED monitor shipments for MSI are projected to increase at the fastest rate, elevating its market share to 11% and securing its position as the fifth-largest brand. Meanwhile, Gigabyte, with the launch of new OLED models, is projected to rank sixth in market share.

QD-OLED monitors are set to dominate the market, driven by Samsung Display's aggressive production ramp-up and multiple brands introducing QD-OLED models. QD-OLED's share of total OLED monitor shipments is expected to rise from 53.5% in 2023 to 73% in 2024. In contrast, WOLED's market share is forecast to decline to 26%, with RBG OLED accounting for just 1%.

i have seen some on lightning sales for 429 dollars already, 240hz 27" 1440p. off brands you never heard of though, which is a bad idea cause you want that "OLED Care" software that a lot of the name brands have.

I gave up on OLED, because of abysmal flickering.

Meanwhile OLEDs still have issues with:
- burn in,
- variable refresh rate flickering,
- near black flickering,
- QD-OLEDs having raised blacks in bright environments due to lack of polarizer layer,
- text rendering on anything lower res than 4K.

While sales might be up it doesn't mean that issues are gone, just take a look at r/oled_gaming.

It just means marketing teams did their jobs well, these points you mentioned give me pause, the biggest negative being the price/longevity. I can't believe people aren't tired yet of being BETA testers while having to fork out top dollar.

That's what I was thinking of

R&D is expensive
Early adopters paying the price.
If I had the money I would still get one.

these points you mentioned give me pause

You always should do research before spending that amount of money

This is caused by VRR, so disabling this will remove the flickering, and unless your geeeting crazy high high FPS, then Vsync shoulkd be off. Not and ideal solution, but if for example your getting 100fps plus in games, having vsync off wont be that noticable.

Waiting for RGB strip O-OLED to get released to market, only then can I consider getting a replacement for my UW monitor etc. But of course it will have to have zero burn warranty like Dell offers otherwise its DOA.

IMO true RGB stripe panels from LG won't arrive until late 2025, that's the initial roadmap from last year:

Also, LG has a nasty habit of shipping UW OLED panels with 800R curve which sucks. And they don't offer zero burn in warranties (but panels can be also used by other manufacturers).
