With AMOLED on the Rise, Full High Definition Screens Proliferate Further in Q3
December 23, 2015 | IHSEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Led by the rising popularity of the iPhone 6S Plus and other large smartphones, unit shipments of 5.0-inch-and-larger displays surpassed those of smaller displays for the first time in Q3 2015. While quarter-over-quarter unit shipments of 5.0-inch-and-larger displays grew 21 percent to reach 247 million units in Q3, smartphone displays smaller than 5.0 inches fell 6 percent to 156 million units.
Unit shipments of 5.0-inch smartphone panels experienced the largest growth of any size, jumping from 93 million in Q2 2015 to 104 million in Q3, which is the first time 5.0-inch shipments exceeded 100 million units in a single quarter. Thanks to the iPhone 6S Plus and other new models manufactured in China, 5.5-inch smartphone panels grew from 65.6 million in Q2 2015 to 79.8 million in Q3. Screen sizes of 6 inches and larger have not been as popular with smartphone buyers, so growth in that size range has been marginal.
