The Global Market for Computer Monitors is Projected to Decline to 121.8 Million Units by 2022
Rapid Penetration of
Handheld Devices Hamper Demand for PC Monitors, According to a New Report by Global
Industry Analysts, Inc.
GIA launches comprehensive
analysis of industry segments, trends, growth drivers, market share, size and
demand forecasts on the global Computer Monitors market. The global market for Computer Monitors is projected to decline
to 121.8 million units by 2022 due to
rapid penetration of handheld devices such as smartphones and tablets.
The global market for computer
monitors is witnessing declines in shipments, constrained largely by the
falling desktop PC sales. Major factors aggravating the decline in PC sales include
longer PC replacement lifecycles, substitution by smartphones and tablets, and the
growing shift towards mobile computing. The emergence of cloud desktop and
desktop as a service are changing the future of personal computing and
information management by severing the physical hardware tie between the PC and
desktop applications. Also impacting growth in the market is the launch of
Windows 8 designed especially for touch-oriented computing devices, a market
development that is fueling the transition to touch-based systems running on Windows
8. The growing enterprise interest in Windows 8 enabled mobile computing
devices as part of the larger support for the BYOD environment will
additionally impact enterprise use of desktop PCs. In addition to the rising
wave of BYOD, sales in the enterprise sector will also be impacted by technologies
like mobile desktop virtualization that allow delivery of virtual desktops to
mobile devices.
Despite the numerous challenges
stacked against the PC market, innovative technology improvements are creating pockets
of growth for dollar sales of computer monitors. Higher commercial value of value-added,
feature rich and high-end PC monitors including large-size monitors, flexible paper-thin screens, professional graphic design monitors, and
high-performance gaming monitors will help offset partially the decline in volume
growth of computer monitors. Future growth in value sales will also be driven
by gaming and PC monitors that have cloud connectivity, ultra-high resolution,
wireless applications and other special and customized requirements of the
diverse global user base. Few of the technically advanced, and feature-rich
current and next generation monitors include 4K ultra high definition monitors;
34” diagonally measuring displays with a 21:9 cinematic aspect ratio; monitors
with LED backlight modules and HDMI 2.0/MHL; curved displays and smart device
displays; and ultra high definition 5K monitors, among others.
As stated by the new
market research report on Computer Monitors, Asia-Pacific represents the largest market worldwide both in terms of
value and volume sales with unit shipments expected to decline at a projected
rate of 1.7% over the analysis period. Dollar sales in the region, on the other
hand, will be supported by the introduction of premium as well as low-cost monitors;
large population base; and presence of leading monitor manufacturers. Despite
competition from alternative technologies, wide-screen LCD monitors will
continue to maintain growth in the Indian and Chinese market, supported by
technology advancements, and growing demand from the SMB sector.
